North, geese, herron, sand

In the foothills before ascending back to 10,ooo feet, I found this little hot spring place and, of course I had to stop for a soak. I am hooked.



Great Dunes National Park in Alamosa, CO Quite a massive chunk of sand that does not seem to be in place, and it was much colder than any beach I remember.



I am certain I heard geese, but I also saw herron in this grouping. And, for integrity's sake all I did was yell kind of loud to get the gaggle/herd/covey airborne.



This is looking down into Eagle River CO from 10,000 feet. There is actually a railroad track in there somewhere, though how a train climbs here I don't know.



Aptly named Crystal Lake Colorado. The mountain in the background is Mt. Massive 14,200 feet
