golden leaves
an eruption
molten lava
burns the eyes
orange searing,
so full, fulsome
can’t imagine more,
senses overflowing
perfect days
as ephemeral as
flowing rock
destined to cool

Views from the Battle Creek Overlook
Looking southeast toward the Zirkles
Along Wyoming Highway 70 between Encampment and Savery, the Battle Creek Overlook provides a spectacular place to view the mountains. Just west of the Sandstone Ranger Station in the Medicine Bow National Forest is a paved road heading south. In a half mile or so, the Overlook is right off the road. The highway passed by here until the great slide in 2010.
