Took a quick overnighter from Leadville up Mosquito pass to Oliver Twist Lake. Not too bad, until I took a side trip trying to get Cooney Lake past Oliver Twist Lake. 2 decent water crossings and then some steep technical spots at the end. At Cooney lake there was a stock Grand Cherokee that i'm not sure how he got up there. Got some pics of him coming back across. The guy in a dodge probably had an 8 inch lift and swampers, so he did just fine.

This is a pic of the fire from last month that I think burned about 300 acres.

Didn't take many pics on the Alma side since it was raining. Just missed a hail storm too.

Dude in the Grand Cherokee looks like he was really pushing the limits! Nice shots, and a good looking dog to boot!
