Hanging Lake Waterfall, Early Summer Runoff, Lower Trail, nr. Glenwood Springs, Colorado, June, 1978
“Once upon a time in a place far far away,” so the saying goes, the hiking trail from the gravel parking lot adjacent to old two-lane Hiway 6 in Glenwood Canyon to delicate Hanging Lake in a side-canyon to the north was a rugged thousand-foot vertical rise in about a mile and a quarter. No reservations were needed. One could simply drive to the parking lot and begin the hike at a time of one’s choosing. No more. With the completion of its eponymous tunnels and the four-lane I-70 roadway through Glenwood Canyon in 1992, hiking traffic increased many-fold over the ensuing years, requiring reservations days in advance. Over-use of the primitive trail, which remains substantially the same as it’s always been, has necessitated tight controls on the volume of hikers allowed to make the climb in order to preserve the lake’s fragile ecology. In recent years a disastrous fire throughout much of Glenwood Canyon threatened Hanging Lake’s very existence, but the area was spared. A visit to this lake continues as one of the most scenic and accessible hikes in Colorado. Image made on Kodak black and white film with a Rolleiflex 2.8F medium format camera equipped with a Carl Zeiss 80mm f2.8 Planar lens.
