We headed out for a few hours to take pictures of the mountains and the old buildings in Clear Creek. On the way, we found a section of old railroad track that had been undercut by the river. Most of the railroad ties had fallen into the river, but a few still hung onto the underside of the rails. Zac and Bryce had fun crossing the tracks in the freezing cold. We also found some old bridges, buildings, and mines to take pictures of.
