Awesome. Wonder how long it takes the wind to do that. Amazing.

Thanks Dave, looks like you have it nailed!

Lacking blossoms for identification, my guidebook back home was no help at all.

This was a lone plant with no others to be found anywhere on the walk. Living in a tiny microclimate, I suppose [are there giant microclimates?].

Cheers,

Rick

[Dave T]

I guess that's why they call the family the "Stonecrop" family. Great little plant and great photo!

[Karl Gottshalk]

I hike up here a few times a week before work to catch the sunrise, the trailhead is only a mile from our house.

[Ryan Linn]

Great place to catch a sunrise, Karl. I'm heading up there today for a last good look before I head out of state for a while. Bald Rock is without a doubt THE gem of the park.

[Karl Gottshalk]

I catch your blog from time to time. Looks like you have a great year planned. I am envious! I don't have that much time, but am planning on doing the Colorado Trail at the end of the summer.

[Ryan Linn]

Maybe we can compare trip photos when we get back :) I'll have to get out to CO one of these days. Happy trails, Karl!
