When you wake up on a spring morning and there is 5 inches of snow what do you do? I decided to go hiking. I found out there was no snow in the mountains and headed out.
The trails are dry up in the mountains and the life is beginning to start growing. The snow line is very low on the mountains but the valley floor does not want any more snow this year. Elk and sheep are abundant everywhere and are enjoying eating the dry grass on the valley floors. The young elk are full of life and energy.
This is a great time to be in the shadows of the Rocky Mountains. The sun does not yet have the heat of the summer, but just enough to put a smile on your face. The wind is light and there is very little sound other than the odd cry from a crow.
