Hiking, day 48: St Mary's Glacier

During my stay in Black Hawk, I wanted to use my location as a jumping off point for hiking. I didn't get out quite as often as I would have liked, but I did scratch one item off my list: St Mary's Glacier.

Even being a pretty frequent hiker - and this being a short hike - this was a bit of struggle at altitude. When I got close to the top, it was quite beautifully desolate. Loved the trees.

There's a very pretty lake at the bottom of the mountains - the glacier is in the background.

I didn't stay long - the clouds rolled in and the rain started, but it was still a beautiful view.
