The Pile of Rocks

For years, I  noticed a large rock formation south of the highway that goes through Gunnison, Co.

I have always wanted to go investigate them, but we were usually in hurry going to or from the grocery store.There are a number of trails all through these rocks, although I noticed more bike riders than hikers.

 I spotted a road leading up to a lookout, and convinced Tom we should investigate.

The road was rather steep in places, but I am okay with that if there is no drop off.

We arrived at the first look out, and discovered a couple of tents. There must have been hiking or biking, because no one was around.

From this look out, you could see most of Gunnison, Co in the distance

The views were pretty in all directions.

The road continued on to another look out, but Tom said he had rather do that in our 4 wheel drive...so maybe next trip. It was a beautiful day, and I am glad we took the time to have a look.
