These handsome folks got buried somewhere in my computer yesterday. I pushed a strange button, and there they stood, full of smiles, and admiring the scenery of our hike on Coller State Wildlife area.

Behind these folks--Rio Grande flowing under ice with the splendid palisades behind it.
Unusual picture: 7 men and two hard-hiking women #6 is hiding in her yellow coat.
Up a bit from the river.
Looking down-stream--Del Norte Peak on left, part of Beaver Mountain on the right (the burned hill from 2002)
Limber pines
Limber cones and 5-needle cluster on left; rounder cone with 3 needles is Ponderosa Pine
Bringing Del Norte Peak a bit closer. It won't be many months until we'll be standing on top of it.
