I’m doing a catch-up post here. Yesterday was actually a travel day, which ended with us in Utah. But I didn’t get to share what we did on day 3 at RMNP. So here goes, with little commentary because we need to roll.
Elk Sighting
Bear Lake
Shannon at Alberta Falls
Annelies at Alberta Falls
VERY Early Aspen Leaves
Hiking Down from Alberta Falls
Nymph Lake
Nymph Lake Feels Just Like Home
Nymph Lake from Above
Dream Lake
Dream Lake Trail
We all gasped for air the entire way as we climbed from an elevation of 9,475 feet at the parking lot to over 10,000 feet at Dream Lake. That would be a strenuous climb at sea level, but at just under TWO miles high, it was REALLY a challenge. Our legs are still feeling it two days later.
But with this view as the reward at the end (we passed Nymph Lake along the way), it was well worth it.
