Cheyenne Canyon

Cheyenne Canyon and beyond... Today Nathan and I were supposed to hike up a 14er, but the winter storm that arrived over most of mountainous Colorado forced us to change our plans. Instead, we hiked up Cheyenne Canyon and hit a few lesser known mountains that literally are in our backyard.

The weather stayed nice all morning but started to turn (as expected) after lunch when we arrived back at the parking lot. Over the course of the morning we had covered 10 miles and seen Pikes Peak from unique vantage points. It was a nice day out, and although relatively tame elevation-wise, still a long day on my feet.
