colorado trail near cottonwood pass, june 2022
#this was another really fun hitch it was a trail angel who went like 10 miles out of his way for me#an old guy who did a lot of SAR and told me about a rescue last year that i think messed him up a little#anyways we got up to the parking lot and the couple that was hiking behind me the day before (i passed them at the sketch cornice at uh.#lake ann? mary lake? something like that)#and they were heading into town and got a ride back w him! perfect timing!#i was like so excited to see them cause i wasn't keeping pace with anyone really and there were hardly any repeat encounters like that#anyway journal says this day sucked and doesn't elaborate. im pretty sure it was amazing in the morning (see photo for fucks sake. hello)#but i do remember thunderstorm panic and hail and waiting in cold rain under a rock getting soaked for like an hour as one of the#lower points of the whole trip#but i saw my first bull moose in the evening! and i did big miles!#it was the first 10+ mile traverse above treeline. and so close to a parking lot like. you can literally just drive there and do a day hike#lets just everybody move to colorado what is the point of depriving ourselves by living elsewhere#trail posting#colorado trail#CT#tag journal#cottonwood pass
