Hanging Lakes, by Steve Hirsch
The snowfall in the winter of 2011 was a record in Colorado which led to a massive runoff in the spring. With my wife Sheila and good friends Barry and Shelly, we set out on this climb of 1 1/2 miles up to Hanging Lakes in Glenwood Colorado. A moderately difficult hike with a significant elevation was well worth the effort as these waterfalls were far better in 2011 than in previous years.
