First pics, Four Pass Loop, Maroon Bells WA, Colorado

[Una_dogger]

Just home...just wanted to post a few pics...what a memorable hike -- sad to be back in the "real world" after so many days living within the rhythms of the mountains.

Please bear with my borrowed point and shoot, quality is not so great.......
