[today’s run: Coyote Ridge 4.5 miles]<\/p>\n

When we were in RMNP a couple of weeks ago, hiking and camping, we went on a bit of a hike up the Fern Lake trail.\u00a0 Along the way I saw a lot of berries.\u00a0 There were three kinds, red, pink and blue.\u00a0 My wife told me the pink ones were rose hips.\u00a0 Later she said the blue ones were huckleberries.\u00a0 I don’t know what the red ones are.\u00a0\u00a0 We didn’t see any bears eating the berries, but it looked like a good crop that would attract that kind of attention.<\/p>\n

Newsflash!\u00a0 Google tells me these are probably Oregon Grape\u00a0 (not huckleberries, sorry Sweetie)<\/p>\n

Another notable plant-life thing we saw on that trip was at the Devil’s Backbone down near Loveland. It is a more arid, open area there. And I saw these pod things on the yucca plants. Google tells me they are seed pods.<\/p>\n
