I wanted to take a nice picture of the river, so I took the five mile hike to the top of Animas Mountain. I didn’t get a good shot. This is the best of the photos I took, and it’s lame. So I am going up the mountain again tomorrow, this time with a picnic, and will try again. Patiently. (I don’t know if stubbornness is a virtue, but patience is.)
I hope to have a spectacular river shot for you on Monday.



















wow..that is quite the hike Alice. Beautiful scenery…enjoy your picnic tomorrow and have a great weekend.
That’ll be pretty tough to top, Alice! My guess is that you’ll come home with quite a few more spectacular photos of our beautiful valley, especially since you’ll be with one of your fun hiking partners!
That view is a fabulous reward for hiking 5 miles - thanks for sharing the photo - I wish I could hike that too.
