| The air was full of smoke from a forest fire in California but the view was still spectacular. This 9.7 mile roundtrip hike went to Pawnee Pass on the continental divide. It had a vertical rise of 1956 feet. |
| The streams had very little water on September 1st. The next snow is just days away. |
