Little Cottonwood Trail

I was spontaneous this afternoon and made a quick 15 minute drive to this trail head. I walked for just 30 or 40 minutes. I've learned to not let an opportunity go to waste in the Fall. Our winters can seem long at times.

Look what I found up there. If there's snow in the mountains it's just a matter of time before it's down here in the valley.


Anyway, that was my little walk in the woods. It's nice that it's all so close.
