Doesn't it just drive you crazy....

Doesn't it just drive you crazy when your Sparkfriends change their profile image and it takes you a while to recognize who they are again? Just kidding, I love all the updates. That is if you can get SP to let you upload new pics.
Here are a few more of my ride up to the lake....
The trail follows the Greenwater Creek, it is about a three mile climb resulting in a 1600 foot elevation gain.
Tree roots frequently hold the trail in place, but they also create obstacles in the trail.
The slope sure looks steeper and the trail much narrower from the back of a horse.
The trail passes lush green pools of water formed by the creek...
and through lava flows with an alpine background...
to arrive at a lake surrounded by rich grasses and spectacular surroundings.
Big discovered elk droppings in the grasses, for some reason, he thinks its grain (and I kiss that nose, yuk!).
Our last goodbyes to the lake for now and Big is arguing that he is not done eating, yet I have the nerve to ask him to pose in nose deep grasses. I'm such a mean mommy. Smiles
