Grays and Torreys, Colorado’s Front range

A baby mountain goat and it’s parents sharing your trail.  A dozen varieties of wildflowers forming a mile-long gauntlet of welcome.  Thick, spitting fog shrouding the upper two thousand feet of your twin goals: Colorado’s eighth and ninth tallest peaks.  A quick enough hike whose trailhead is close enough to Idaho Springs to hit up BeauJo’s Mountain Pies for a recovery lunch.  Life is good.

On this trip: Jacob and I.  You can see I got caught up in the wildflowers.
