We used to live down the street from Garden of the Gods. Spent a lot time there. Beautiful park. The whole area is gorgeous, but early to mid Fall is amazing.
Too bad you couldn't come during Halloween. Manitou really gets into it. Lots of spiritual mysticism and pagan beliefs surround the area. Nothing that we ever got involved with, but we knew of people who evidently "communed" with spirits. Creepy.
I regularly fished for and brought back Trout dinner from the Rampart Range Reservoir which is directly behind the G of the G's.
Nice report, dude. Do you have friends or family in the Springs?
