Eagle Park, Colorado

by slgwv
Looking east across Camp Hale Pond--Google's name, but there's no name on the USGS 7.5' topo. Looking up the East Fork of the Eagle River. If I'm reading the map right, the peaks on the skyline in the center (left to right) are North Sheep Mountain and Sheep Mountain. "Park" was a traditional name in the US West, conferred by trappers, explorers, and such, for a broad, park-like valley. Camp Hale, in Eagle Park, was where the US 10th Mountain Division trained for WW II.
