Poudre Canyon

Before landing in Denver area, we made a brief stop in pretty Poudre Canyon west of Fort Collins.

The river is officially named Cache la Poudre, named for some French trappers who buried gunpowder along the river in the 1820s.

In places, the canyon gets pretty narrow.

Since it was mid week, we had our choice of campsites.

We enjoyed a pleasant hike up Hewlett Gulch.

It involved many stream crossings.

Some of which were easier than others.

And now I'm again way behind with my posting since I didn't blog at all during the 11 days we spent with Ron's family in Denver.  But there will be some cute pictures coming up.
