Photo TR: Hiking in Crested Butte
Cross posted from the Photo forum... more eyes here.
My wife and I spent the last week in Crested Butte hiking, biking, and enjoying everything else the area has to offer. We did a few "new to us" hikes since it's been a down year for wildflowers, but the scenery was outstanding as always. It's amazing to me that at each of these locations, we were the only ones there despite all the people in town and the fact that we weren't far from civilization. Crested Butte delivers once again.
