Beauty Beyond Belief

Beauty Beyond Belief

Posted on December 31, 2022November 11, 2022No Comments on Beauty Beyond Belief

On the last day of 2022, I thank you for following me in the changing environment of DebDays Blog. For years, I have shared my hiking adventures throughout the world. As my health has caused me to change from climbing mountains and high altitude distant hikes to walks and strolls, my writing has also adapted. … Continue reading Beauty Beyond Belief

Revisit High Altitude

Posted on November 5, 2022October 5, 2022No Comments on Revisit High Altitude

Cottonwood Creek tumbling toward Buena Vista, Cottonwood Pass at 12,000 feet and Cottonwood Lake are some of my favorite places in Colorado. The majestic peaks pour their stored snow into creeks that tumble out of the heights in Cottonwood Creek to Cottonwood Lake for enjoyment. It leaves the overflow of the lake to course its … Continue reading Revisit High Altitude

Living Water Pours

Posted on October 22, 2022September 15, 2022No Comments on Living Water Pours

It was the day of the visit to go to the High Mountains. There was no other day for my visiting friend and it rained. Clouds on High Mountains obscured the view of their glory. In the Western USA, we never complain about rain – the liquid from the sky is too precious. Stopped at … Continue reading Living Water Pours

A little Gem

Posted on October 8, 2022September 15, 2022No Comments on A little Gem

Near Four Mile Creek west of Divide is a ‘little’ mountain with a one track path up to a look out. It is a nature trail and that is usually easy. I decided to try to climb even with my heart issues. It took me an hour to climb a mile and half, but I … Continue reading A little Gem

11 Miles Canyon greets the driver with a roar of clear water after the entrance. It is located on State Highway 96 just South of Lake George, Colorado west of Woodland Park, CO. We headed into the 11 Miles Canyon (cost is $8 per car) to find a quiet place for reflection, silence and solitude. … Continue reading 11 Miles of Water Beauty

Magnificent Secret

Posted on September 3, 2022August 20, 2022No Comments on Magnificent Secret

Why would I not visit this magnificent valley in 24 years living in Colorado? I had never ventured on the Road to Jefferson through the Tarryalls from Lake George.  The mountains are at 11,000 to 12,000 feet above sea level and there are paths crossing many of them, but they are not famous.  They pale … Continue reading Magnificent Secret

Cottonwood Lake Lesson

Posted on August 20, 2022August 20, 2022No Comments on Cottonwood Lake Lesson

Out of Buena Vista, Colorado lies one of my favorite roads leading to Cottonwood Pass, and Crested Butte.  It follows a beautiful creek, has Hot Springs and some of the favorite hikes of my past.  Denny Creek parking lot was very full, so we traveled on to the Ptarmigan Lake Trail.  Starting at 10,000 feet, … Continue reading Cottonwood Lake Lesson

Resting Well

Posted on July 23, 2022June 18, 2022No Comments on Resting Well

“One’s most effective work can grow out of first learning to do nothing well.” Backpacking with the Saints, Belden Lane P. 215 Americans only see ourselves as productive if our calendars are full and we are really busy. The pandemic hit this notion hard when we learned that the world did not revolve around our … Continue reading Resting Well

Peaceful Poudre

Posted on November 27, 2021August 31, 2021No Comments on Peaceful Poudre

Waiting for Taz, our twelve-year-old Schipperke dog to be treated at the Veterinary School in Ft. Collins, Colorado, we decided to sneak out for a quick hike in the nearby hills. This area had been threatened by fire in 2020 and I wanted to see how close the fire had come to this area.  We … Continue reading Peaceful Poudre
