Mueller State Park, Divide, Colorad0
Mueller State Park is located near the town of Divide, east of Colorado Springs in the Southern Rockies. It is an ideal location for cross country skying and snowshowing. We set out for a day of snowshoeing but mother mature decide otherwise. The weather, as we know, is unpredictable in the mountains. We arrived to find a full parking lot and great blue skies. Within 1 1/2 hours we were surrounded by heavy grey clouds, and it had started snow. We ate a quick lunch, shrivering in the dropping temperatures, and headed back to the car. When we reached the parking lot, we found it empty. Obvously, others had gotten the message that it was time to move on. So we headed for the Garden of the Gods for the remainder of the afternoon.
