Just One of Those...
AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA AAAA
Adam Klagsbrun
It was just one of those days that was meant to be... but I didn’t know it when I woke up. I was sore from the previous day’s adventure in the Indian Peaks Wilderness, in need of a few more hours of sleep, and I had things to get done before I could hit the park. But if I wanted to make it to the headwaters, I had to get my priorities straight. Up and into the shower I went. Somehow, I got done with my errands early, successfully dodged the Ironman race that had much of the area shut down to traffic and passed almost all of the trailers on the twolane sections of the windy road up the canyon. 32

The last obstacle to overcome was getting into the park fast and finding a good parking spot... but that too went my way, as I skipped a good thirty minutes of waiting by having the National Parks annual pass (which scans at the gate like an EZ Pass) and knowing which lots to hit first. A little bit of luck also went a long way as I grabbed the last parking spot at my favorite trailhead.
Score! Heading up the trail I quickly outpaced the crowd and found some solitude, taking in the beauty of the high-altitude mountains in early
