A beautiful fall day in the Rockies

This morning Tim and I got up early and drove an hour and a half into the mountains to go hiking. The scenery was stunning! The aspens are turning color - fall is in the air!



Rampart Reservoir - This lake supplies water to Colorado Springs.



Unusual rock formations around the shore of this lake. How did these rocks get there? That's what we would like to know! It looks like they were strategically placed!













We were almost at 10,000 feet!

Landscape is so diverse! I took this picture from the left side of the road looking east...

and this shot from the right side looking west!
