Favorite RMNP Hike: The one I'm on

Diane and I were headed up to Mills Lake on Thursday and as we came around the corner this guy was looking at us. We scrambled up a little way of the trail and he came down to pass us. Not the best pics, but he was in a hurry

Bet that scared the heck out of you. He is a big boy. How did you even think of getting your camera out!

Whoa! That would have been a heart stopper for sure. And yet, you had the presence of mind to pull up your camera and get a very cool picture :) You're the BOMB!

Nice!
Isn't it a thrill when that happens? I mean when it's safe, of course.
