<\/a>Glenwood Canyon And Colorado River At Hanging Lake<\/p><\/div>\n
The hike to Hanging Lake starts at the bottom of Dead Horse Creek and follows the creek for most of the trail.<\/p>\n

After a steep climb of about a mile, we reached the base of the cliff below Hanging Lake. The trail has handrails at this point. Looking down, I made the following image of the water as it flowed below that waterfalls towards Dead Horse Creek.<\/p>\n

Here is another image looking back down the canyon that we had just hiked.<\/p>\n

After reaching the top of the cliff, we arrive at the shores of Hanging Lake. There is a boardwalk along the edge of the cliff that forms the boundary of the the lake. At the far side of the lake are several waterfalls that I captured in this image.<\/p>\n

The water flowing down was clear, and allowed me to make images that reflected the green forest and cliff walls in the water.<\/p>\n
