Royal Gorge Saturday
January 26, 2003









Doing 51km in Royal Gorge:
Hannes, Jacques, Marta, Jim, Hannah




Starting out with a few warmup laps in van Norden...









...followed by lunch in the warming hut by Lola's Lookout.














Next up: Devil's Lookout.









Snow Mountain took us down to the cozy Wilderness Lodge.
The flags indicate the owners' favourite countries for cross-country skiing.
These countries also inspires the cousine served at the lodge.




Weather still great. Later off to Bird's Rest, followed by Mirkwood on my way back, part of which carries the apropriate name 'Rooster Comb'...




Gamba waited patiently for us in the car, since they just had decided to not allow dogs on the ski trails.




To make her a bit happier, we went for a long sunset walk by Eagle Mountain.




A Mexican place in Colfax fed us well, and we said by-bye to some day trippers...




...while the rest of us headed back to our motel.









[sleeps well, dreams of skiing]
