Do What You Want, Be What You Are

This post goes back to July 15th. I got up early and drove to the Tarryall Mountains in the Lost Creek Wilderness. I climbed Mt. Bison which has an elevation of 12,431 ft. It is a 12-mile out and back hike from the Ute Creek Trailhead on County Road 77. The hike is a steady up, but it is nothing too difficult. The rock formations near the top were quite interesting. The morning weather was cloudy which is usually rare in Colorado. The good thing was that the clouds kept it cool and reduced the chances of thunderstorms. Here are the pictures from a fun hike.

Just crested the ridge that leads to Mt. Bison
