You may recall that I paid a visit to Granite Canyon in the winter, only it started from the top of the ski resort...and we were snowboarding. Yesterday, David and I drove out to the Village to meet up with Anne, my roommate from college for a quick hike to Granite Canyon -- from the bottom of the resort. Everything looks so different out there now. It's lush and green. There are people milling around everywhere. It's weird. The tram is also running, so if you feel like heading up to where it's winter again, it's worth it. I'll probably wait on that one. We took the Valley Trail which headed up the soft slopes of Teewinot and around the bottom of Saratoga Bowl to a rushing Granite Creek. Ripley, Anne's dog, came along too. He's a nonstop fetch player. He will drag sticks that are bigger than him along the trail and drop them right in front of your feet. Here are a few shots from the "nature walk," as we called it.
Didn't see any bears today, although I'm sure Ripley would have protected us haha.
Sweet little Ripley.

Anne, soaking up the beauty of Granite Creek.
Trying to get a decent shot of the rushing rapids.
