Garden of the Gods

I brought Joe to another of my favorite places in Colorado - Garden of the Gods in Colorado Springs. It's so beautiful to walk around there and just take in all of the formations and the beautiful red colored rocks.


If you look closely you'll see hikers climbing on this rock front. The park puts up leads for people who can register if they're certified and climb throughout the park. Crazy!







There are climbers up here too, but you can't really see them in these pictures.

This is my favorite formation (obviously). This is the kissing camels. If you look in the center where the hole in the rock is, you can make out two camel-like heads that look like they're kissing.
This rock has been teetering here for years (although it's not really teetering, it's very stable) - I have pictures from 10 years ago pretending to hold it up, but Joe didn't want to play along!
