Beautiful view further into the canyon up Rock Creek past Lake Como. I need to come back and see this with snow. :)
Our morning began with rain and a rainbow as we were getting ready to leave for our hike.
| Fall. Nature. Hiking. Mountains. ... My favorite combo. :) |  Como Peaks have a bit of snow now. You get a glimpse of one along the trail. |
There's always something to catch my eye for a photo, and if there is rock and water around, you are sure to find me there!
I love the beauty and contrast of water and moss!
Drying out drenched pant legs in a rock field after pushing through a lot of overgrowth on the trail still wet from the rain.
A lovely place with a view (and wind) we discovered up and away from the trail on our off-trail excursion.
We're always checking our topo maps to see exactly where we are and what is in view. :)
 Busy |  little |
 squirrels |  and chipmunks. |
Three female mergansers enjoying a bit of sunshine on their little rock island in the lake. A little brisk for swimming. ;)
Hiking along the north side of Lake Como on our way out. There's water at the east end, and mostly mud at the west end.
As usual, we had a blast! Until next time... :)
