Elden Lookout Trail

Just finished my week of hill work leading up to the Imogene Pass Run. In an attempt to continue working on my ongoing IT Band problems with my knees I have been focusing on steep terrain that requires more of a power hike than a run.



 Today was a hot one, well into the 80's with no cloud cover. The two ascents earlier in the week were much cooler and much easier, I understand now the power of heat to ruin you. These runs were also the first views of the Shultz fire that I have seen, you can see in the first two pictures on the right some of the damage.
