Rocky Mountain High

Okay, so it's not technically a "high" but I do find myself occasionally lightheaded due to a lack of oxygen to the brain. Obviously us sea level creatures weren't designed to function at 14,000 feet and even 10,000 ft. gives us a run for the money though that's mainly a statement about us old folk. The boys seem immune to oxygen deprivation. Youth.....

Got out last night to a small lake outside of Estes Park for an hour or so with Sam. The fish were rising and I managed to get one to the net -- my first Greenback Cuttrhroat Trout!

After a few days of much needed rain we've got blue skies. Today we head into the park proper.
