Landscape SIG - Wed 2/15 @7am, RMNP: Sprague and Bear Lakes
***** CANCELLED due to dangerous weather conditions *****
The Plan: First Stop Sprague Lake which is great for catching the early morning light on the high peaks of the Continental Divide. Second Stop, Bear Lake has lots of ice and snow formations. Participants may choose to only do one of the lakes and may also decide to not do the short hike which would be less than 2 miles if we walk about both.
Meeting Place: 7:00am at the Safeway Parking Lot in West Loveland at 1451 W Eisenhower Blvd, Loveland, CO 80537 Park pass or entry fee is required for each vehicle. Be prepared for very cold conditions. Please use sunscreen! Optional but highly recommended: hiking poles, micro-spikes and/or snow shoes if you have them. Plans may change depending on weather conditions. After the outing we can have lunch together in Estes park. I have several ideas as to where to go which can be decided on by the group. Please contact Ed Ogle to RSVP
