9-15-19 - (Day 53 - Another Day of Bighorn Sheep)

It was another beautiful morning, but that dang wind was howling.  The sheep were walking around in the parking lot again this morning. 

We spent the day riding on Amber and hiking.  We hiked the Canyon Mouth Trail, Stateline Trail, and Ranger’s Delight Trail.  They were all pretty trails.  We saw a few critters and a lot of Bighorn Sheep.  We hiked 4.66 miles today. 







We came back to camp, got the spotting scope out, and sat around enjoying the warm, 90 degree weather sitting under the shade of the awning.  It is a lot warmer than the 48 degree temperature we had when we got here on Wednesday. 


Lauren decided we could use the trail that the sheep travel to get to the water’s edge.   I chickened out about half way down.  It was quite challenging for Lauren, but he made it!



We built a campfire and cooked burgers and smores over the fire while sitting around in tee shirts and shorts.  We have thoroughly enjoyed camping here.  Tomorrow we relocate.
