One nice December solstice day Sue Wolber and I went for a long out-and-back hike at Devils Backbone open space west of Loveland. This turned out to be my second-to-last hike with her because she died tragically in a small airplane crash less than a year later (Nov 23, 2024). I didn't take a whole lot of pictures on this hike, but these are worth sharing.
