Today the sun stayed hidden while we took a walk to St. Louis Canyon. We left the Lodge's Lobby and headed out on the West Bluff trail. We had great top views of Aurora, Sac and Kickapoo Canyons. St. Louis Canyon had a little bit of ice. We are waiting patiently for more ice to form. On the way back to the Lodge, some walkers went into Aurora Canyon. Today we had 45 hikers in attendance.

| Another view of the waterfall. "Riggs" is in training, and by the looks of it, he is doing great! |
 |
| When getting in and out of St. Louis Canyon, this is the "bridge". Everyone stayed dry. |
 |
| We are coming out of the canyon. I looked back and we had quite the line. No short cuts for this group. I make them walk on the trail! |
 |
| This trail has many sandstone formations. |
 |
| The West Bluff trail has a long boardwalk. These can be very slippery when wet. |
