  • This breathtaking hike in the San Juan national forest of Colorado will leave you speechless! We start this hike in the South Mineral campground across the street from the trail head. Starting at well over 10,000 feet of elevation. The trail is 6.8 miles round trip. It took us three hours to reach Ice Lake and it was so beautiful! You cannot miss this hike if your in the area. We drive pass Silverton, Colorado to find dispersed camping. For dinner Kellie makes salmon hibachi.

    When I hear a lot of Cicadas near water, I always fish with artificials, with my fly rod. The fish hit them hard!
    The Lake and the Flowers are your reward. Thanks for taking us along with you.

    You two are made for one another. Cody is so laid back and Kelli, you can get a bit frustrated at times, but Cody just listens and behaves like a good husband. LOL...Oh, I'm sure Cody has his moments as well. That's what makes a great couple. Living in such close quarters is a challenge. That's why you two can make it happen!

I got hot so I was holding it in my hand for a while, then I put it on. About ten minuets later I said where is my hat{ I thought I had it in my hand} my wife started to laugh then I remembered it is on my head. Dumb Be safe and may God Bless you

Just fyi….the single blue flower with the bee is gentian ( pronounced gent-shun)….pink flowers are fireweed….and they are one of the first things to grow on a recent burn area. the cluster of purple flowers are larkspur. just in case you didn’t know. The white, pink and pale yellow flowers in meadow are Indian paintbrush

    My wife and I thoroughly enjoy your videos. One thing you have mentioned a couple of times is when descending or climbing a hill is that the camera just doesn't relay the actual slope very well. You are certainly right. I don't know which type of phone you have. But the Android system has clinomenters available in the play store for their phones. I imagine Apple/iPhone store has similar applications. The clinometer is very easy to use. Sure would be great to have some idea of attack you are doing! Have a Great Day!
