Bighorn Trail

Steve and I took this hike several years ago.  It is a moderately difficult hike because of the elevation gain.  The scenery and vegetation on this trail makes it worth the hike.  There are no spectacular waterfalls and the view are just ok unless you hike on past where we stopped, but the aspen groves and ferns are beautiful.  This post will have lots of pictures.

Aspen all around us.

Steve caught this sunflare in the photos of the aspen.

A photo like this is in many of the art shops in the area.

A short part of the trail included hiking over this rock field.

We really loved this early morning hike.  We would love to hike this trail in the fall when the aspen are turning their beautiful colors.

    I'm not sure why but this weblog is loading extremely slow for me. Is anyone else having this problem or is it a issue on my end? I'll check back later
    on and see if the problem still exists.

    Woah! I'm really digging the template/theme of this blog. It's simple,
    yet effective. A lot of times it's difficult to get that "perfect balance" between usability and appearance. I must say that you've done a awesome job with this.
    Additionally, the blog loads very fast for me on Firefox.

    Superb Blog!

    Hello! I realize this is kind of off-topic however I needed to ask.

    Does operating a well-established website like yours take a lot of work?

    I am completely new to writing a blog however I do write in my diary every day.
    I'd like to start a blog so I can share my own experience and views online. Please let me know if you have any ideas or tips for new aspiring bloggers. Thankyou!

    Hello! I was interested to know if setting up a blog website
    such your own: http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?
    blogID=3630947797640361159&postID=7187114958875188506 is hard to do for inexperienced
    people? I have been wanting to set up my own website
    for a while now but have been turned off mainly because I've always assumed it demanded tons of work. What do you think? Kudos

    Write more, thats all I have to say. Literally,
    it seems as though you relied on the video to make your point.
    You obviously know what youre talking about, why waste your intelligence on just
    posting videos to your blog when you could be giving us something enlightening
    to read?

    Hey there this is kind of of off topic but I was wanting to know if
    blogs use WYSIWYG editors or if you have to manually code with HTML.
    I'm starting a blog soon but have no coding know-how so I wanted to get guidance from someone with experience. Any help would be greatly appreciated!

    Hello! Do you know if they make any plugins to protect against
    hackers? I'm kinda paranoid about losing everything I've worked
    hard on. Any suggestions?

    Amazing! I'm really enjoying the layout of your blog. Are you using a custom theme or is this freely available to all users? If you don't want to say the name
    of it out in the public, please e-mail me at: alonzodobson@bigstring.
    com. I'd really enjoy to get my hands on this theme! Thank you.

    First of all I would like to say terrific blog! I had
    a quick question which I'd like to ask if you don't mind.
    I was interested to find out how you center yourself and
    clear your mind before writing. I have had a tough time clearing
    my mind in getting my thoughts out. I do enjoy writing but it just seems like the first 10 to 15 minutes
    are usually wasted simply just trying to figure out how to begin.
    Any ideas or tips? Cheers!

    Great blog! Do you have any hints for aspiring writers?

    I'm planning to start my own site soon but I'm a little lost on everything.

    Would you recommend starting with a free platform like Wordpress or go
    for a paid option? There are so many options out there that I'm totally overwhelmed .. Any suggestions? Many thanks!
