18, and later, 19, spent a great day hiking the Cobre Lake Trail on Sat. 20 Sept. (Yours truly's birthday!!). The leaves are turning and we had some really colourful vistas to enjoy. It was cloudy for a good part of the hike, but the sun came out as we were walking around cobre Lake on the return and we enjoyed sun for the tail-gate party afterwards. As advertised, we took our time and enjoyed the beauty of this impressive trail. Thx "Bearded" John and Scott for some of the pics.
