| no partners | | Impromptu hike with Micah and Muesli. In researching the Tunnel from my Fall Colorado photoset I found a family friendly hike. It links up with the Ring the Peak trail in a spot I hadn't done and I haven't hiked as much in this area. Micah is becoming quite the hiker probably walking a mile of the hike. I carried the extra 23 lbs. the rest of the way. I did mistakingly leave her blanket Dottie at home which made for an unhappy toddler on the last 1/4 mile and in the car until she went to sleep. There were some icy sections and the falls were cool although the lighting was lame. She also learned the word graupel today as we were pelted for over half the hike. This trail also links up to Sentinel Peak and Pancake Rocks for longer mile hikes in the area. This was just about right for the circumstances. Or maybe 1/4 of a mile long since I left Dottie.
The overnight snow, cold temps. forecasted 27 F at Sunrise and 19 mph winds have changed my early morning long hike from Manitou via Elk Run and Oil Creek Tunnel home to another time.
A couple of short videos of my future hazer in action.
