Petra, Scott, Justin and Doug go hiking.









Justin, Petra, Doug, and Scott hiked up above Silver Dollar Lake near Bierstadt peak. Then we made our own trail up above the lake Murray to the top of the ridge and very near Argentine and Flat Top peaks.. There was a very nice meadow on top of the mountain with a lot of marsh, as there was no obvious declivity for a stream to follow. It was an amazingly pleasant meadow and very relaxing Except for the thin, cold air, the amazing views, and the beating our legs were complaining about, it seemed entirely too flat and bucolic to be ~13,000 feet in elevation!
