Rampart Range 11-7-15

We walked up the Rampart Range Road from Garden of the Gods into the Waldo Canyon burn area east of Cascade and back, about 8.25 miles (150.25 runtotal) with about 1300 feet elevation gain before we turned around.  It was in the 30s for most of the hike, we could often see our breath, but it was sunny.  A temperature inversion created a hazy morning.  Very little traffic on the road - we had it mostly to ourselves, very peaceful.
