This little challenge was nothing more than a hike up a well worn trail.....
The views of course were nothing less than stunning.....
Tanner and I.....we loved every second of this hike.....
Once near the top there's some rock climbing required to actually make either summit. Here I tied Tanner to a tree as it was way more than I was comfortable with.....he waited patiently. They say that from this spot up high.....that every postcard picture of Ouray, Colorado is taken from here.....I can see why.....
We returned to the camper with plans for me to relax in the city's hot spring complex ($14 per day with people.....ugh.....). I opened my camper door and there stood 3 people.....we chatted & we chatted....and then I say "sorry, I'm off to the hot springs". Well this one guy, he says "how'd you like to soak in a hidden hot spring nearby ?". I'm all in.....we walked through the outskirts of town and then finally we left the town limits.....passed by an abandoned mine shaft.....
And then there it was this tiny pool of steaming hot water.....and it was just me and my best friend.....
I throughly enjoy watching other travelers videos or reading about their adventures and one thing always seem to surface in their stories.....
It's always when they meet people that go beyond the norms to help them that the storyteller emphasizes what a positive effect that person(s) has on their adventure.....
I tend to go on and on about the benefits of being alone.....but there's a place for man in every mans world.....
