Another short, easy-peasy hike in Colorado National Monument. Great weather and the lack of nasty, pokey vegetation was a dream!

Since it is a new year and I am living in a new place I have resolved to get back out on the trails and explore my surroundings a bit more this year! Decided to start off with something relatively easy to get back into the swing of things and acclimate to the elevation.

The trail is easy, even snow-covered. Some icy spots descending. I noticed prints from people wearing strap-on crampons but I didn't feel like they were needed. I brought the wrong lens for my new-to-me camera (telephoto vs. wide angle) so half of my photos are from my Galaxy S6. Might go back out to do Echo Canyon later this week from the same trailhead.

I am definitely not in shape yet to take up backpacking again, but that is a goal for this year. Time to get back out on the trail!

Having flown into Grand Junction to look for a job and a house, I had three days before Karen would arrive. It was my big chance to convince her to leave Michigan and follow me out west. I found a job, and a house, and still had a few hours left over for a hike!
Colorado National Monument sits on the western edge of town, it's red rock every bit as incredible as Sedona. Devils Kitchen, an arrangement of Stonehengy monoliths, was a short hike and well worth it. Someday I'd love to return with some lighting and photograph this thing at night. 8)
