This spot which for years had been the most fertile section of wildflowers, usually filled with a mixture of elephant head, scarlet and sulpher Indian paintbrush, pinnate-leaved daisies and arrowleaf senecio, was now just a field of gravel with a few sprouts of green struggling to poke through...

In early December we held a pre-sale of my upcoming book, "Hiking Rocky Mountain National Park: The Essential Guide". The sale lasted just under two weeks and during that time we sold 667 copies! That will give me a real boost in helping to pay for the printing...
