This morning we did a family hike on Rollins Pass, and it was a gorgeous day – mid 60′s and mostly sunny.
We are thrilled to have all this in our big backyard. A few miles west is Winter Park. Below is Moffet Tunnel, which marks the entrance to our hike.
And another view of Moffat Tunnel, from a ladybug’s perspective.
The trail was full of rushing mountain steams, and a dozen little wooden bridges to cross. Sometimes we did have to get our feet wet.
We reached our destination, a nice meadow and another wooden bridge over a stream.
A few mountain wildflowers…
Mertensia lanceolata (Bluebells)
I love the striking red colors of the Castilleja miniata (Indian Paintbrush).
I wouldn’t have given this photo a second glance, but the colorful bokeh (round circles) caught my eye.
