Rocky Mountain NP Residency Day 14

Feeling a little melancholy to be leaving the cabin today. I quickly acclimate to places, and spending a week or two somewhere is sufficient to make it home. Thankfully I'm not yet leaving the park, though that will come soon. The weather was rather dreary, so I held off on the last two biggish hikes I want to do. Instead I strolled around Sprague Lake in the late morning, in the rain. Since I was in the area, I also took a last trip around Bear Lake before finding a campsite in the Moraine Park Campground.
