The following day, on the way back home, I followed the route of the Moffat Subdivision rail line along the Colorado River.

Quick Getaway, Part 1
Back in early March, I was feeling a bit stressed and decided I needed to get away for a couple of days. The trip was planned about 30 minutes before I left. I headed towards Glenwood Springs, Colorado about 3 hours away.
A winter storm had just passed through so I thought I would like to hike to Hanging Lake and check it out in the winter time.
The trail was slick with snow and ice and I used my Stabilicers (cleats) on my boots. The scenery was gorgeous.
I was startled at the beauty of the lake when I got to the end of the trail. There were icicles in the falls and the water was a brilliant crystal clear blue-green in the sunlight.
That evening I had some really authentic Cajun food at The Lost Cajun, in Glenwood Springs.
Evening 2 of 2015
The full moon combined with the fresh snow makes it very light out at night.
Granted, it’s not quite as bright as depicted in he time exposure above. But no flashlight is needed to walk around and take photos.
