This past weekend we headed out west of Fort Collins near Poudre Canyon in the Rocky Mountains for a 3-day backpacking trip. I have never seen snow in July before!!!! That was a first for me. This trip represented a lot of firsts- first time camping at elevation, first time hiking above treeline, first time seeing an elk, a moose, and a marmot in real life. [I want a MARMOT!!!!] In addition, this was Penny's first backpacking trip ever. She's been camping, but has never hit the trail with us. She did beautifully- minus the obnoxious moments of barking at the group of 20 teenagers that camped across the stream from us.
So, that's all for now- enjoy the slideshow! You can also view this album on Picasa at http://picasaweb.google.com/Jeana.Maynard/HikingPoudreCanyon#.
