A View of the Collegiate Peaks

Wednesday, September 3

Didn't do much of anything except listening to an audiobook and enjoying the nice temperatures when the sun shone.

It would feel a little cool when cloudy but not bad at all.  The fact that there was only a light breeze helped of course.

The campsite is home to at least 5, possibly more, chipmunks.  Cheeky little buggers, they run about everywhere including under the VRRV.  I've propped the hood open to discourage them from nesting in the engine area

Rode the TW200 onto US285 and headed West towards Buena Vista.

I wanted to get pics of two of the Collegiate Peaks:

Mt. Antero on the left,
Mt Princeton on the right 

Mt. Princeton 

Less than a mile further from the above pic, I went to the Collegiate Peaks Overlook.  You're supposed to have a Colorado State Parks Pass but the ranger let me have 5 minutes:

Pano of the Collegiate Peaks

Mt. Princeton again
