Red mountain


Am experimenting with blogging from my iPad. So I am not sure this will work.





- But last week I explored some additional trails at this geologically complex complex "county open space





Some of the trails go through eroded canyons...and the Cheyenne Rim goes up along the northern edge of the Denver Basin, a syncline that dips to 13,000 feet under the city of Denver. Makes one realize the extent to which the Front Range is just wash out from the erosion of the Rocky Mountains, now so much lower than they once were.





Just astonishing to be surrounded by so much living, moving rock...forming the structure of our daily lives
