July 8: Bear Creek trail - Telluride

Sunday, July 8, 2012 0 comments
We did the Bear Creek hike up to the waterfall in the morning, before the rain set in. The monsoon season has arrived, and this parched state is grateful.
Some folks played frisbee golf when the rain cleared, while others got pedicures.
I hear that Laura and Ashley did the bungie-trampoline, till it closed as thunderstorms started.
Some people went to Madagascar 3.
Some of us went to see The Best Exotic Marigold Hotel that night, while others played wizwar.

rocks and trees tower over us
the waterfall at the top

Careful, those red wet rocks *are* indeed slippery, as I learned first hand

Josh and I played tic-tac-toe with the rock as chalk
all of us who went on this hike
the fall did not ruin my day
