Such a wonderful adventure. Our naturalist, Will, was extremely knowledgable about the flora and fauna. We tasted things along the way (turns out I love juniper berries, even though I don't like gin) and learned about knickiknack, trees, geologoy, you name it. No animal sightings, but I imagine that could be possible.
From departure to arrival back in Denver, everything worked like clockwork on this trip. It was a small group and we were able to explore an area of the foothills I'd never been and capped off the hike with a beer in an restaurant steeped in Colarado history.
