Colorado Spring Creek run 9/2/06

At this point my batteries died and I didn't get any more pics. Hopefully the other guys will add their pics to the thread.

The trail from here on up was very rocky, with lots of loose, soccer to basketball sized rocks, growing to the size of tires and small cars as we neared the last obstacle, the "triple bypass" ... at least that's what I'm calling the rock garden.

Giant boulders tumbled down the main trails, which were obviously home to fast and furious flash floods. The bypasses were no better. They were all deeply rutted and blocked with boulders, trees and twisted roots. Alan was leading, and we tried everything to get him up the trails, stacking rocks, trying any possible line and even squeezing between the trees. But nothing worked.
