230) Backing in Rocky Mountain National Park


Will and I took a nice 5 day 4 night trip into the northern end of Rocky Mountain National Park. It was a really beautiful, but also a little bit harsh. The late Spring weather of the rockies slammed us with hail, snow, freezing rain, regular rain, high winds, lightning, fog and just about anything else in between.

















The highlight of the trip may have been on the last few miles out on our last day. Will spotted a moose just off the side of the trail (we had seen two others a day before) and we waited quietly to see what it would do. It ended up walking up to the trail, pausing at the edge of it and looking at us, then just moving on and fading into the forest on the other side of the trail. It was a pretty cool site.
