I'm always up for a drive to the Rocky Mountain Front and the Continental Divide Trail, if only for a short hike.
A short it was, about 1.5 miles roundtrip and about 800 feet in elevation gain, but I got terrific views of the snow covered mountains on the west side and the tawny brown plains to the east as I climbed to the divide on the west (Cadotte) side of the trail.
It was massively windy and there was a couple of inches of new snow atop ice and windblown trail.
I haven't been posting consistently, although I've had several other tele trips near Showdown. I've been traveling extensive to see a grandson in Kansas City and an aging mother in Chicago.
