(Unexpected) Grey Rock Trail

P1050289

We missed the parking lot … but it worked out well! Not far past the small parking lot was this group of traffic-halting cool cats.

Oh, good.

WHAT ARE YOU?! Rabbit ears, squirrel body … Seriously, what is this thing?

I believe this is the “Gray Rock.” But wait, look closer …

See it yet?

About halfway … toward the left side. It’s Wesley, in all black, practicing for his eventual princess-rescueing trip. (Also, to brag – go back to the first picture of Gray Rock. Aren’t you impressed I spotted him!??! I mean, not as impressive as CLIMBING it, but pretty good.)

View from (almost) the top.

Horsetooth Rock Trail

Not Featured: Microspikes! When the trail got particularly icy (the last 100 yards or so) we put our microspikes on and were able to continue. My wife donned them first, I maintained a tough guy approach and then promptly ate it … Then, with the microspikes on we walked faceplant-free to the top where we had lunch and a thermos full of hot chocolate.

Also not featured: Earlier that day while out on a jog I saw two bald eagles!!

Also also … I’ll get back to writing more at some point but for now I’m just too impressed with how much beauty nature has to offer.
