    I don't know . . . I'm more of an alternative rock/Celtic kind of guy and I actually liked the music . . . kind of set the theme for the slideshow.

    You guys look to have had a great time! Thanks for sharing your photos, they came out great!
    I thought the same thing about the sage grouse, but 1 they have the big poofy chest because they inflate to make the alien sounds, and 2 look closely at the eys, at the red beneath them, I looked at a lot of pictures of sage grouse and found none with that red eyeline underneath, whereas the Rock Ptarmigans are the only ones I've found with the eyelines... perhaps they're a backwoods colorado crossbreed...??

    hehe, only the male sage grouse poof out. I think there is a type of ptarmigan out there. The striation looks a sage grouse though. The only real way to tell is to roast it and taste it...

    (OK, Aaron, I understand. Since Steph reads the forums, you don't want to say anything about Haley Westenra. I understand. REALLY! I understand...)

    Nice job on the slide show. Looks as though you had great time. I have taken lots of pictures in the rockies and like yours they are o.k., but no amount of pictures can capture what it feels like to be standing there humbly looking up at those mts. Blaine and I rode into Glazier park on a very foggy afternoon we couldn't see any mts at all from our campsite. When I crawled out of my tent the next morning the sun was shining brightly and the sky was as blue as it gets. If I live for another sixty years I will never forget what it felt like to look up at those mts all around us. Pedaling a bike over them is also something I won't forget real soon
