How can I resist a walk in Garden of the Gods on such a lovely afternoon. Living only two miles away, the temptation is too great. A short loop hike with great views east and west on a gorgeous blue-sky day. Let’s explore along Ridge Trail Loop.
Let’s go . . .
It is an overcast day in Colorado Springs which even in winter is unusual. It is sunny most every day. I know, you cannot stop feeling sorry for us 😉. Today, though, it is snowing in the mountains yet Pikes Peak is visible, cloudy in the Springs, a nice day for a hike. Why? There is no wind, fewer people in this very popular park, and although we won’t have the lovely blue sky, we also don’t have the blazing sun washing out the colors. So onward to Palmer/Scotsman/Bretag trails and the Garden’s amazing rock formations.
Grab your jacket for our 40° day and let’s go!
