Bear Lake


 Hi, yesterday we went to Bear Lake, on the way we were stopped by about fifteen elk in the town of Estes Park! When the elk had moved on we continued up the road only to stop again about five minutes later. This time, there was elk on the side of the road instead of on it. This group of elk was a lot bigger, about ninety elk and one of them charged at us! When we got to Bear Lake and started the walk there were Chipmunks everywhere. The walk circles Bear Lake which is at an elevation of 9474 feet. When we finished the walk we drove back to Boulder. On the way back home we didn't see any elk though we did see two wild turkeys. Here are some photos of the day.

Eldorado Springs

Hey guys, yesterday we went to Eldorado Springs which is a pool on the outskirts of Boulder. Eldorado Springs opened in 1905 back then it would only cost one dollar for a swim. The pool is only open in between Memorial weekend and Labour weekend. The water comes into the pool at 76 degrees Fahrenheit and the heating system brings it up to 80 degrees. Eldorado Springs is a great place to kill a hot day. Here are some photos of the pool.

Red Rocks, Boulder

Red Rocks Trail is a walk up a 300 ft high hill with a view of Boulder at the top. (The town of Boulder is at the base of the Rocky Mountains and is at a height of 5430 ft or 1655 m above sea level.) Red Rocks Boulder is a moderately easy 45 minute walk. Located in Settlers park it is a 1 mile loop trail. Settlers park got its name because it was thought to be the first permanent camp of American settlers in Boulder. Be careful as Black bears, mountain lions and deer thrive in this area. Here are some photos of Red Rocks.
