Day 6, still in Grand Lake

Since our hike yesterday went so well, we decided on another hike.  We wanted to see Cascade Falls.  This was another hike around 7 miles long.
Near the beginning, we saw a deer with two fawns.






For this hike, we didn't have a loop, it just went in and back.  We saw a guy and his kid fishing in this trout stream.




Cascade Falls was a very long rocky area.  We had lunch there before heading out, and talked to some people who gave us suggestions for hikes on the other side of the park.


                        


On our way out, we spotted a moose that other hikers had told us about.  We could see some big antlers back in the brush, but the other moose wouldn't come out for a picture.


Nearing the end of the hike, we saw these clouds.

We almost made it back to the car before the rain hit.






 Later in the day, we went to look at a city park, which had this sign:
I don't know if you can read it, but it says in part "A moose that sees you and walks slowly towards you is not trying to be friendly"





Grand Lake is over there
