Island Lake via Ice Lake Trail

Colorado Trail Segment 25
Cappie’s Scoop: I’ve been on different parts of the Colorado Trail and this part climbed up the mountains which was really cool! There weren’t a lot of trees but the weather was good so I didn’t need the shade. I saw some hoomans on mountain…
Falls Creek Archaeological Area
