| Blue Lake is one of my favorite Hikes. It is up in Indian Peaks Wilderness near Nederland. The trailhead is Mitchell Lake near Brainard Lake. |
 |
| This is an extremely popular trail as we found out today. It was ridiculously busy. Also the parking here fills up really early. We got here at 8 am and still didnt get a spot. You have to park by Brainard lake picnic area and walk an extra half mile each way. |
 |
| First we came to Mitchell Lake. It was very peaceful at this hour. |
 |
| View of mitchell lake as we headed on. There are lots of water crossings on the trail. |
 |
| The wildflowers were the most Ive ever seen. So very green! |
 |
| Some views of the flowers. |
 |
| Getting closer to the Lake. |
 |
| We had our lunch at Blue Lake and enjoyed watching all the people continuing around the lake to find a longer trail. |
 |
| My favorite stop after is the New Moon Bakery in Nederland. They have tons of gluten free goodies!! |
