    Dolly Varden Gully, Alma, CO - may 7, 2014

    I started my trek right around 11:00am. Typically I am a get up and go but it's been fairly cold here still in the AM and so it was better to let the snow soften a bit. Dolly Varden Gully is located on the east side of the 14er Mt. Bross - I didn't make it back to my car until 2:15ish so it was...
