First high altitude hike


On our first morning in Estes Park, I got up early and decided to do a hike with my pack on to see how it felt at high altitude.  I went on a rolling trail right across the street from our condo.  I did 4 miles in an hour and 15 minute - which was no speed record but it was tough because I was really feeling the altitude - so I was pleased!


I was hoping to see some wild life but only saw ducks and a snake cross the trail.  I also saw some muddy bear prints -- but no bear!




Along the trail there was a little park that had a sharing library.  It held books that you could take or room for you to leave a book.
