Rocky Mountain High - Colorado - Today we drove up to Echo Lake at the entrance to Mt Evans and trooped about the lake on our snowshoes. As you can see it was a beautiful Colorado day with lots of blue skies and a crisp 40 degrees or so. The lake is at about 8,500 feet in altitude so we did not set any speed records in our trek. It was a perfect Saturday after a very busy week. We live in a beautiful part of the world.
