I just made it up to the top of Owl Mountain on County Road 27 between Rand and Gould, CO. This is a gravel road and on Saturday I faced either climbing to the summit or taking the evening and next day off. Guess which I did. We had a good day off yesterday, but we were in an area without phone service or broadband. So, nothing to do but watch some movies and have a campfire for a few hours. It was very relaxing.

We stayed the last two nights at the Ranger Lake Campground in the State Forest State Park near Gould. There are supposed to be about 600 moose in the area we are now in, but we haven’t seen one yet. We aren’t holding our breath on that. If seen, I’m sure Valda will get a picture.

I may not have broadband tonight, so we will blog when we can. We will be heading for Cameron Pass on Hwy 14 today and the the Poudre Canyon on the way to Ft. Collins.
