Shoeing above the tunnel

Today, we went snow shoeing near the Moffat Tunnel with Mark and Teena. If you walked through this tunnel and weren't run over by a train, you'd come out at Winter Park about 4 miles the other side of a mountain range. Yesterday, we had about 10 inches or so of snow, or the equivalent of 10 inches. It was pretty warm and much of it melted when it hit the ground. We drive up here and hiked up one of the trails and had a nice lunch.


Our high point on the hike was 10,052 feet above sea level. We went up 1,266 feet over two miles of hiking. Since it was sunny and the weather was really nice, other than gusty winds once in a while, we had a great time and enjoyed the beauty of the earth, in Colorado.


As you can plainly see, we're all squinting in the bright sunlight. As my camera took this photo it told me, "blink detected!" So, I took the photo again and got the same result. I figure if the camera can tell if they're blinking, then you can tell if they're squinting.
