During August 2009, we hiked the complete 485 miles of the Colorado Trail. We saw one bear, three moose, and a few million pika and marmots. We hiked above treeline for dozens of miles and were chased by lightning. We also stayed at a bed and breakfast in Breckenridge, visited Mount Princeton Hot Springs, and ate seven pounds of peanut m&ms. See the links for more pictures and stories.
