"The Royal Arch"

This is definitely becoming one of my favorite hikes.  The Royal Arch, along the Flatirons of Boulder, is a beautiful vista point and it's a great workout to get there.  My dog, Sophie, accompanies me on most hikes.  She pretty much runs circles around me, always looking back with this expression of "can you PLEASE hurry up?!"  It was a great morning.  Met some very nice people along the way.  Great way to start the weekend...
