Hanging Lake, Hotels and Hot Springs

About a month ago Ben and I had the opportunity to get away for our anniversary and spend a few days in Glenwood Springs. We had such a fun time riding the gondola, going through the Fairy Caves, Ben riding the Alpine Coaster, the human maze, swimming in the hot springs and hiking up to hanging lake.

These two waterfalls are coming out of the rocks behind Hanging Lake.

We made it!! It's an intense hike, but absolutely beautiful.

If you look closely at the left side on the top you can see a fairy in the wall.
