Got an early start this morning -- going to be a short day so the plan is Lake Mary above the Brighton Ski Resort.
Sunny morning with wispy clouds and windy - very windy.
The lower portion of the trail is surrounding by lush green plants that will look awesome in a few weeks but today mostly only bluebells, forget-me-knots in bloom and some columbine in bud - the red/white variety.
The trail is much drier than when I was here last time.
Many ground squirrels running around this morning.
And chipmunks.
I make my way to Dog Lake -- spot a Boisduval's Blue sunning itself. The lake is very small now.
Hoping to see a moose because its only 8:20am but nothing.
I head back to the trail to Lake Mary.
On the way down, I spot a family of baby ground squirrels playing hide-n-seek from one of their den holes.
Good short day!
