Williamson Pass Hike 2-1 Hancock Colorado Ghost Town
Williamson Pass Hike 2-1 is our second attempt to do the loop hike. First weekend of July one mile in the snow was still chest deep.
As we were leaving Hartsel Colorado, the sun arose in all its brilliant glory giving tribute to morning on the high plains of Colorado along the Platte River
Fence posts of the buffalo corral are but silhouettes in dawns light
As the Day Lightens Platte River Glows as fog from the temperature rises lazily across the horizon
