Exploring Beautiful Crested Butte, CO

 

We continued on our camping trip through southwestern CO and made 4 day stop in Crested Butte. We have not been there in the summer before and it is truly an amazing place to visit. The mountains are huge and we enjoyed the cool water of Lake Isabel. We hiked all over the place, found waterfalls, and even a stash of some of the first river kayaks ever reproduced (the Dancer).

 

 

The wildflowers were bountiful in Crested Butte. So many varieties and colors! Olivia had fun exploring all the nature around us. We even made these neat dried flower keepers to bring back home to show Grandma all the things we had seen along the way.

We all had a great time on the SUP - stand up paddle board. We rented this one from a shop in town and Olivia would ride on the front. She couldn't get enough of this!

 

This has got to be one of the cutest pictures ever. Daddy is in his full fishing get-up, while helping his little cowgirl ride her bike to the lake. It was hot, and a bit frustrating, but they both got there ready to fish the day away!
