Our next hike was Capitol Gorge. This was another hike through a canyon's wash.

The girls learned about flash floods in canyons at the aquarium in Denver and were nervous to hike in canyons. We hiked this morning and happened to be pulling out just as raindrops fell. They were happy with that.

There was a hike up to see "tanks" which held water. Imagine standing water...ew. But on we went.
