    My wife and I decided to take a little ride into the national forest about 15 min. north of our home this afternoon...

    That's Pikes Peak in the background...

    This is a place we call "Lunchtime Rock"... It has a great view of Pikes Peak...

    Do you know the name of any divides in that area? I'm trying to remember the name but it's escaping me! I took a picture somewhere but can't find it!

    It is right on the western edge of the Continental Divide, but that runs all the way through Colorado...

    Taylor Park is in the Collegiate Peaks area...

    I'm not gonna say it's easy... But, it is worth it...

    Life is tough here, but I love the outdoors...

    Fishing, Hiking, Camping, Hunting, Backpacking, Shooting, etc... I can actually do everyone of those activities within 15 min of my 35 acres... Most can be done w/o leaving my property...
