Hiking, day 36: Antelope Trail

This is another, smaller trailhead at Hall Ranch in Lyons CO that has some different views from the main trailhead - definitely a nice change of scenery!

Hiking, day 35: Rabbit Mountain

Another quick hike for the holiday at Rabbit Mountain in Lyons CO.

Hiking, day 34: Rabbit Mountain

Today might have been the perfect weather for a hike - warm temperatures but a cool breeze, the sun peaking out behind the clouds.

Hiking, day 33: Golden Ponds

I'm officially a third of the way to my hiking goal for the year after doing a quick trip to the local park here in Longmont CO. The water was running pretty high after the freak late-May snow we got this past week.

Hiking, day 32: McIntosh Lake

Can we officially call baby prairie dogs "prairie puppies" from now on? I know they're rodents, but they're still pretty cute. Here's some shots from a quick hike around McIntosh Lake in Longmont CO.

Hiking, day 31: Sandstone Ranch

Took a bit of a shorter hike today, since my husband and I are celebrating our wedding anniversary today! I headed over to one of the local parks, and there was so much wildlife out today!

Here's a shot of some of the fossils at Sandstone Ranch.

This cute little fella was hanging out under a tree next to the trail.

The trail runs by some oil fields, one of which is home to a fair amount of prairie dogs.

Couldn't quite get a better picture, but there are some huge fish in the river!

This pair of geese is always hanging out by the pond next to the farm house.

As I was leaving, I couldn't believe I was watching a turkey walk across the path in front of me!

A view of the old sugar mill and the mountains.

Panorama of the sandstone formations.

Hiking, day 30: Heil Valley Ranch

Always a good time in Lyons, CO!
