4/8: Taylor Reservoir, Colorado

“Safer at Home and the Colorado Great Outdoors 2020”

Look at all those fourteeners! What a view.

A dispersed site off FS755 with a nice view of the reservoir and…

…A great view of the Collegiate Peaks – the other side is Buena Vista.

We hiked the road along Texas Creek enjoying the majestic mountains.

The bulldozer is maintaining the road and closing off illegal campsites.

A nice spot to hang out for lunch and while away a hour or so.

Another lunch spot and a few nights of camping in Taylor Park.

A day trip to this nearby mountain town.

A good wander around and a visit to the scenic historic cemetery.

We pulled up for a hike and stayed the night in this quiet spot.

A very nice bunch of aspens greeted the beginning of our hike.

Several stream crossings took careful attention…

…Or an opportunity to goof around.

But a peaceful destination to hang out was our reward.
