Mills Lake

She told me to take

a hike

I thought I might like

a trip up to Mills lake

elevation 9,957 ft.

on the Glacier gorge trail

an easy 5.6 mile round trip

from the trailhead

take in the view of

Longs Peak’ west side, Key Board of the Winds,

and Pagoda Mountain to the south.

And some beauty along the way

such as wildlife: elk, deer, marmots; meadows, lakes

streams, wildflowers, aspen trees

then go into Estes Park, sip some tea.

I told her, thanks 🙂
