Steamboat

We took a break from hiking at Rocky Mountain National Park for a quick weekend in Steamboat Springs, where we took a little side trip up to Fish Creek Falls. Once before I've seen the falls, but that was in October. To see the falls in early June was incredible - massive amounts of white water pulsing on all sides.

Several brave Heart and Sole Harriers ventured up into the high country to run the races - marathon, half marathon, and 10k. The marathon and half marathon followed the Elk River into town. At times we had the raging river on our side, and then we would climb to view open pastures, lush and green, dotted with dandelions, and snow capped mountains on the edge of town. Plenty of wonderful scenery to view while counting off the miles.
