The access road is about a mile long and quite rough, despite its tame appearance here...
Before driving away I sat by the lake for a while just winding down...life was certainly good on this day...
Fire in the canopy...blazing maples above me as I  near the end of the loop...
Sunny silence...my knees were aching but I was still regretting I'd soon be leaving...
Late afternoon has to be my favorite time in the woods...I love the lighting!
The cedar-choked north shore of Cobre Lake...beautiful...
I only have to get over there...
No rest for the weary.  The trail wasn't getting any smoother so I had to pay close attentoin not to roll any ankles as I was still a couple miles from the trailhead at this point...
Before the property around Cobre Lake was protected it was mined extensively for a number of minerals...here, about halfway between Blue Sky and Cobre Lakes is a shaft dug in the 50's in search of Copper...
