Emerald Lake hike in Rocky Mt Natl Park. Elevation at trailhead: 9,475. The elevation gain took us to 10,080 ft. 3.6 miles roundtrip. Miss Sydney hiked the 1.8 miles up by herself. She insisted on walking and she did a fine job.

Early morning start.

She moved pretty slow at times because she wanted to sit/climb on each rock. A game of hide and seek kept her moving.


Not to mention all the rocks she carried.

I believe this photo was taken near Dream Lake.

Emerald Lake. Breathtaking.
