Piper swam out to the middle of the lake. That speck is her head.

We drove Kebler Pass from Carbondale to Crested Butte. The views were again beautiful but it was a bit hazy today.

Town of Crested Butte. We stopped here for lunch before heading to the house.

Kebler Pass has one of the largest Aspen Groves in the U.S.

Someone slept through most of the drive over

We biked 14 miles through Glenwood Canyon along the Colorado River. The views were just incredible! Thanks, Aunt Sandy for telling us about this trail!

We had to ride around the two tunnels leading into Glenwood. The view were amazing from here too!

After the ride we had ice cream at Kaleido Scoops

A Getaway in the Mountains

We spent a few nights in the mountains. Our first stop was in Basalt and we stayed on the Roaring Fork River. The first night in town we saw our friends Tom and Gail at their new house. It was a lovely start to the vacation!
