Thanks to the Del Norte Trails Organization, eight of us enjoyed the beauty of Lookout Mountain.
Often bypassed with but a glance, this place has 3+ miles of admirably built foot-trails winding around the base and to the rocky top, revealing splendid views in all directions.
Congratulations and thank you to the team that conceived this and to those who diligently and expertly built the secure trails. Our hikers, from South Fork and Monte Vista, admire your work.
We appreciated the six deer that showed us part of the way.
Thanks to Barbara Graham who resumed her regular ascents and graciously greeted us at the top (our condolences to her).
Next Monday at 9 a.m., we'll leave South Fork Visitor Center for another beautiful place. If the predicted "no snow" weather continues, we'll hike for 3-5 miles. Believe it or not, that will take us 3-5 hours, so bring a snack or sandwich, water, and a friend or two.
