Dy 202: Colorado: The Rocky Mountains

Today I did some great hiking in the Rocky Mountains National Park.

Once again I stayed at an amazing campsite, this time near a lake.

I did a walk near Bear Lake, about 3 hours round trip and met a lovely family who offered to take me to dinner (sorry again about my terrible lack of phone reception that meant we didn't end up catching up if you ever read this!!)

I saw a ton of wildlife, from chipmunks to elk, and was equally excited by both, and did a great drive over the continental divide where I needed a jacket it was so cold!

I also climbed up a huge rock cliff thing, but couldn't get any good photos of how high it was, but take my word for it that it was high enough for cars to look TINY, and looking down terrifying.

They are really not joking about the altitude thing, as I was light headed doing moderate hiking!

Tomorrow, Utah xx
