Trip to St. Mary's Glacier

[Zoom]

The aspens are changing, the weather is full-on Indian summer, so of course I grabbed my camera and Sawyer went exploring. This is about an hour and some outside of Denver outside of Idaho Springs. I couldn't get super close to the actual glacier that day as I was just wearing tennis shoes and the wind had nearly knocked me over on level ground anyway, so I wasn't all that keen on doing stuff that required good balance.
