Maroon Bells Photos #2

Again these are in reverse chronological order. For example, here is where we ended up on the final night. There was a nice babbling creek full of ice-cold mountain water ten feet to the left.


The view from Trail Rider pass looking back.



Greg on the trail above Snowmass Lake.



Mike and Greg on the top of Trail Rider Pass looking ahead to the next valley.




A marmot watches us from his rocky perch. No bears ... just marmots and beavers.


Some of the trail was better suited for goats than humans ...


In Fravert Basin, a valley full of creeks, waterfalls, cascades, meadows, and wildflowers. And a long way from other people. My favorite stretch ...



More ...



Fimal photos tomorrow.
