RETURN TO MAGGIE GULCH

Today Tim, Angela, Gina, Laurie and I decided to make a return visit to Maggie Gulch to hike the 3.5 mile loop trail that connects with the Continental Divide trail and view the wildflowers, Afternoon storms were in the forecast so we knew our time on the trail would be limited. The Larkspur are particularly beautiful in this gulch as are the pink paintbrush and bluebells.  Most of the snow had melted since our last visit on July 5th and wildflowers lined the upper ridges of the continental divide. As the afternoon clouds moved in their reflections in the small trailside ponds were interesting. It was a fun morning and great to get in such beautiful scenery in such a short hike.
