Red Hill Trail

Mount Sopris in the distance with Carbondale in the valley

This is a nice hiking trail with a moderate incline of about 800 feet over 1.2 miles. All "red" dirt. Plan to share the trail with mountain bikers and runners. Many beautiful sites. There are three trail systems, easy, moderate and advanced. We took the moderate trail. We talked about doing this trail a couple of times a week for excersie.

Lot's of red dirt. You'll have red shoes at the end.

Amost to the top!

Bill's new office:

The Carbondale Rec Center is a really nice facility. It is one of the "greenest" rec centers in the country with the majority of its power coming from solar panel array's on the roof.

We checked out the pool, and the skate park as well as the Rugby team Bill is going to join on Saturday. The staff at the rec center are all great.  There are a ton of activities going on. Like Michigan the outdoor pool doesn't open until Memorial day and Bill and his staff are busy getting ready for the opening. Pool cover and cleaning starts this week.
