The first measurable snowfall was recorded in Colorado's high country yesterday (photo at right taken at Breckenridge on September 17, 2007). While it is sunny and warm in Boulder and elsewhere at low elevations, we all know that mountain hiking season will soon give way to downhill and cross-country skiing and snowshoeing. Here's a look back at some hikes from the summer of 2007 -- short trips from home, but travel nonetheless.

Second row, upper right: View of Pingree Park from Stormy Pass Trail. Second row, lower right: Crater Lake in the mist; Indian Peaks Wilderness. Third row, left: Abundant wildflowers flank the Shrine Pass Trail. Third row, right: Bridal Veil Falls, Rocky Mountain National Park. Bottom row, left: View of Boulder from the Anemone Trail, whose trailhead is within walking distance of our home. Bottom row, right: Memorial Day Weekend hike through the aspens on the Racoon Trail in Golden Gate Canyon State Park.
