COLORADO TRAIL

CT Day 30: Little Molas Lake

ByPurple Haze Posted onSeptember 14, 2022September 22, 2025

Daily Miles: 6.4, Total Miles: 412.8

I was really getting antsy and wanted to get back on the trail today. Snow in the high country last night and still drizzling in Silverton so a late start this morning.

By the time I got to Little Molas Lake early in the afternoon, there was a steady rain and really socked in. I set up my tent to wait it out but it drizzled and rained the rest of the day. This storm system is now not expected to move through until tomorrow morning.

So I read my book, listened to a few podcasts and the pitter patter of rain on my tent. Going to be chilly tonight!
