Escape to the Mountains

Last month I was able to get some time off and meet my family at Rocky Mountain National Park. It was a well needed break from the Lake Powell heat. We were able to go on some hikes in both the lowland areas and in the alpine areas.  As a forester, I was excited to see trees again. As with so many places I've been,I took a lot of photos but they hardly do justice to the landscape. This is an area  I could see myself working in in the future.

Up in the high country

I do enjoy alpine plants
