We've got scenery and flowers!

Nice hike on Monday!  Ages 12 to 80 went high up a hill and virtually floated down to the little creek and back up a little.  I couldn't help but include a couple of pictures from yesterday's scouting trip up at Wolf Creek Pass.  The snow isn't gone, but it's going fast.  Kids threw snowballs and skidded on plastic platters.  One group of 8 (international) lit out to the north of the pass after the cloudy skies and rain passed at 2:30 p.m.  Another group of hikers is coming from the south on pretty slippery snow/water.  

Down lower on the Trout Creek trail, the flowers are out and I'm already puzzled about the big mushrooms.  Who can beat Dennis to the ID!

Next hike is Wednesday, leaving the visitor center at 9 a.m.



To storm or not!    Alberta Peak yesterday
