| partners | | Ash Creek has already become an annual fall colors pilgrimage but this trip instead of continuing on to Bassett Peak we decided to continue north on the East Divide Trail as far as we had time for. But due to being a last-minute, one-day trip (with a ~4 hour drive each way) along with all the stops for photos along Ash Creek we only got in a mile along the ridge. But no matter, the trip along the creek was worth it.
The hike had all the pluses... perfect weather, peak colors and great views. Unfortunately I managed to leave my favorite hiking pole at the trail head... not once, but twice. The first time was before the hike so all I had to do was hike an extra 1/4 mile to retrieve it. But the second time I was 200 miles from the trail head before realizing I had left it there AGAIN! I guess getting old is catching up with me whether I like it or not.
Between the two of us we took over 300 photos so it's been taking some time to wade through them selecting the best. I'll be posting a small subset here on HAZ with the best 100 photos on my web site here:
