13th Annual Smithsonian Magazine Photo Contest Travel
Hays Creek Falls

Hays Creek Falls is a little hard to find spot just west of Redstone, CO along Hwy 133. This visit was an adventure, to get this shot I had to take off my shoes and wade across to other side. As soon as I did this, the rain started to fall hard. I could only take a few shots, I almost fell into the creek twice and once I got back to the other side my shoes were soaked and I had to hide the camera under a rock outcrop while I put on my shoes.
