What a weekend of mountain running... Pics are from the run yesterday off of Molas Pass. Took the Colorado Trail east from the pass, climbing from about 11,000' to 12,000'. This was an new section of trail for me - absolutely stunning - almost entirely above timberline with views 360 degrees around. Total distance about 10 miles and total time about 1 hour 30 minutes. Still no snow in the forecast - looks like temps in the 60's with total sunshine for at least the next week. seems like this may be the winter to go without a ski pass... Anyways, ran about 23 miles over the weekend, giving me a grand total of 54 miles for the week, all trails! A little sore today with aches and pains in the knees - easy day today for me. I'm back to work tonight for 5 nights on after the weekend off - I'm hoping to have a three day weekend this week so that camping may be a possibility for the next weekend. If the westher continues to hold it still may be possible to head up into the mountains, though the nights will be cold. Otherwise, it may be a desert trip...
