Thank you Debra for the input and the connection to your readers as I'd love to learn more about the areas we used to hike around Durango when I was going to college there 76 - 77 . I and 3 other friends went to college at that time and I still keep in contact with them and will forward any info I get to them for stories and then fact one of them was very interested last night and asked me how the heck did you get this info on Crevasse ? I will have to ask my Daughter how to get on this blog with a newsletter or whatever you all talk about ? Not sure if it's just talking about hiking or maybe hunting and fishing are included ? but we did it all around Durango as we didn't study much as we were too busy in the outdoors ! We all just crammed for test's and the only computer programming class I took at Fort Lewis was punching out cards and feeding them into a computer so I'm a little illiterate and again will ask my Daughter how to get on this blog or newsletter you all put out ! I still remember all the Cokenee Salmon running out of Lemon Reservoir on my 3 trips there to Crevasse . There is also a way to take horses down into D Creek as we did in 77. Thank you all for this connection !

I can identify because happy memories of being in the mountains as a little kid pop into my head all the time!

A classmate, and I ventured that way to Elk hunt in D creek Spent one night on Crevasse in a snowstorm and then hunted the next day. The next day I called my Dad and Brother to come to Durango, from Broomfield to help us with packing . What a great memory but a very unforgiving territory ! Would love to get back there as this memory is only 48 years old and still treasure every moment and would love to talk to a historian in the area about casings and arrowheads I found on top of purgatory mountain ski area, in the area of lost souls from the Spanish explorers ! I bet I wouldn't recognize Durango ! Thank you for the post !

Your narrative helps out with the details of going further up the trail!<br /><br />Great pics also!Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16325508955511613800noreply@blogger.com
