Little Bear Peak and Lake Como

An October trip to climb Little Bear Peak in the Sangre de Cristo Mountain Range. Not much snow except where it mattered and the Hourglass had ice.

Nearing sunset.

As the sun was setting.

Last look the next afternoon on the way down.

Wrote a trip report on 14ers.com....

Jennings Creek Basin Trees

Love the colors and patterns on dead trees weathered in the Colorado mountains. These are from Jennings Creek Basin in the Sawatch Range near Poncha Springs.

Reminds me of Dragon scales.
