We are 5 days in and this is shaping up to be an incredible trip! We spent sunday afternoon enjoying some much needed sun around the denver civic center then decided to find another state park to spend the night in, a welcome change from the wal-mart parking lots of friday and saturday night. We rolled in to chatfield state park around 6:30. After signing in we found our campsite and took some time to drink in the breathtaking view. The mountains spread out behind the lake in both directions taking up the entire horizon and catching the last few rays of sunlight. It was amazing.

After a good nights sleep we awoke to clear beautiful morning, took a small hike, ate some breakfast, and packed up for our drive down to colorado springs!
