Views

Beautiful morning to take in the awe inspiring views from the upper elevation trails at Breckenridge Nordic Center!

Pretty trail, pretty sled dogs and cool view of the cloud topped Rocky Mountains
to our right.

We did an out & back on the upper trails at Breckenridge Nordic Center this morning. There was a shallow layer of new snow on the trails with a few pre-existing tracks. The views from these trails are quite stunning on a clear day. Come along for more and more fun views...

Here we are cruising by the Hallelujah Warming Hut with the mountains of Boreas Pass in view behind the hut.

Zoom we go as Zorro runs in the set track while Jack & Rudy play
in the shoulder powder.

Then, on to a cool view of the tops of the mountains that make up Breckenridge Ski Resort. Draw a line up from Zorro's tail tip and that is the top of Peak 9 at the ski resort. Just to the left of that is the top of Peak 10. Draw a line up from Rudy's right ear and that is the top of Peak 8. Draw a line from the tip of Jack's tail and go a little right and that is the top of Peak 6.

Pretty shot of the tips of the mountains of Breckenridge Ski Resort!

A little further along and you get a fun shot of Kathy's Viewpoint warming hut with the mountains of Boreas Pass in view in the distance again.

Zooming along - wheeee!

Today's video highlight showcases some of the nice views you get from these upper elevation trails. So pretty on a clear & sunny day! Pretty sled dogs towing me along too :)

Since we did an "out & back", that means you get a comical view of the silly kids as we turn around.

"What silly goofs!" says smiling Zorro.
"Stop, drop and ROLL!" demonstrates goofball Jack.
"Stop, dip and EAT!" adds snowcone chomping Rudy.

The best view, of course, is always the happy, happy sled dogs towing me to the finish of the day's run.

All smiles as we complete a day of awe inspiring views.
