labor day
I know its a little late to post what we did on labor day but I just found the camera... it has been hiding for a good 2-3 weeks... oops!
Anyway, on labor day Kacey and I decided that we were going to take advantage of having the same day off for once! So we got ready and hit to road to Glenwood Springs. We weren't going to spend the day in the city but rather hiking a trail just outside the city. This trail is called Hanging Lake with a little detour called Hole in the Rock. Here are our pictures from our adventure.
Can you imagine my excitement when this was at the beginning of the trail?
There were lots of little water falls on the way up this was the first one... its not nearly as pretty as the others but o well
A tree was in the path
Yes this is the trail... almost ALL of it was like this
This is us once we hit the 1 mile mark... I know 1 mile doesn't seem like all that much but it is when you also climb 1000 ft in elevation in that mile.... and we still had a quarter mile to go...
But it was deffinately worth it.... This is Hanging Lake with crystal clear water
And this is Hole in the Rock...
Literally a waterfall coming out of just a hole in the rock...
Sounds like a fun and challenging hike!! I love you!
