This is a beautiful place and the path is in Spanish for fish. When I got to one overlook spot, a Navajo informed me that it was their tribe's spiritual location. So each day I was able to walk that trail, I would stop at the burned juniper and look down at the water below and remember to be thankful for everything I know. I think it is a burnt juniper give that it is in the desert and the below is more lush. I hope to fit in another trail walk on my short vacation. I have a lot for which to be thankful since my last visit.
I did fit the walk in on the last vacation. I saw so much and so many all cast in stone for many lifetimes. Peaceful and yet a banquet of family -- the family that was important -- that of nature and provided by nature.
That structure I posted is in this picture of the "Keyhole" at base of Longs Peak. Can you find it? It has a cone-shaped roof. It's camouflaged, just like me :)
Anyone who has hiked Longs Peak will recognize the Keyhole route after the "boulder field" and this structure at the base of the peak. I hiked it this year took these pics :), and it definitely kicked my butt.....but was worth it!!
