Picture of the Week

Love Rocky Mountain National Park. This picture is from my first trip there...a camping trip with Deb, Copper, Hinds, and Woodruff. We did a short hike to Mills Lake where we sat in awe of the tranquil lake against the backdrop of the rugged mountains. After a while, being a person that can't sit still for very long, I had the urge to go to the other side of the lake. There wasn't a short way to get there unless you crossed the lakes outlet stream, and that wasn't easy. I ended up doing a daring (aka stupid) jump across. Ryan ended up walking across a bunch of logs that were at the mouth of the lake (maybe just a little less foolish in my mind). On the way back, Ryan snapped this picture of me jumping back across. Perfect picture. Not the perfect jump though...one of my feet slipped off the rock and into the water, so I hiked back to camp with a wet shoe.
