Salida-ish for a Night

I had planned on two nights, but after such a great first night and next morning, I knew everything else would be downhill. Got to camp, and really it was just seeing one nice camp spot after another, and finally deciding I wouldn't find one [much] better. Had I gone another 1/2 mile up the road, there were one or two others I might have preferred, but my spot was great! If you look closely, you can see my tent in the first (upper left) picture, the rest were taken while walking around the camp area when I got in Saturday afternoon.

After a refreshing night (was a bit brisk as the sun went down), got up and got going. Decided to drive up to the campground at the end of the road, and then try to get a little time on the Colorado Trail before heading back into town.

While it was a quick trip, it was a great way to spend part of the long weekend, and can't wait to get back out there!
