The hike climbs up through Mosca Canyon which had some spectacular views of the sand dunes.
The top of the hike was a radio tower with some great views of nearby 14ers.
Here is a picture of Mosca Canyon on the way back down.

Fifth Hike - Mosca Pass
Mosca Pass is right across the way from the Great Sand Dunes - Hike #62 under Southern Mountains section. I first attempted this hike with Steven back on August 25, 2008, but a storm can in and it started hailing on us, so we turned back.

I went on this trip with a co-worker, Scott Brown, who enjoyed getting his picture taken.

Good luck on your quest, Sarah. Haven't spent any time in Colorado, but this is the sort of thing I'd want to do if I had the opportunity. If you ever find yourself spending any time in Florida, I can point you toward some great spots - very different type of hiking, though.
ReplyDeleteThe shots of Great Sand Dunes are spectacular. Didn't know about that.
