day hiking

kids swimming, Guffey Falls on West Fourmile Creek, Park County, Colorado, May 2010

A short drive and hike with Karen on West Fourmile Creek to Guffey Falls where we find some teenagers cliff-jumping into the very cold water. We then drive to a development built on the huge granitic batholith exposed below Cripple Creek. Place becomes, as seems usual, the backdrop for ongoing conversations, even the stars from the trampoline in the cold.
