On a stop to Ouray, I decided to string a handful of trails together to be able to swing by a couple of the more “touristy” views like Cascade Falls and Box Canyon while also getting a longer hike in and try to hit a couple more 10k peaks. Unfortunately due to a navigation error, I ended up on a trail that didn’t go to the summits and instead ended up circumnavigating the peaks I wanted to hit. I still climbed up to around 10,700 feet and at one point was in this meadow of sorts around 10k feet. You can see the track I was following through the grass.

Let me go free forever
I’ll be running through the forest
Dancing in the fields like this
I ain’t lonely
I’m long lost”
