This was a great midday hike just outside the town of Silverthorne, along the Continental Divide Trail.
We waited out some morning showers, and brought our rain gear as it was supposed to have scattered showers in the afternoon. No showers, and we spent some time just sitting at the falls enjoying the sound and the weather.

Ski Dog
The coolest dog we’ve ever encountered along the trail. She scratched her cornea the other day, so she’s been wearing ski goggles ever since.
