In 1997 I discovered by accident my favorite spot in Colorado to look for butterflies. Except for the 3 years I lived in Maine, I think I've visited Erikson Springs almost every year for the past 24 years.
I know this video is a little longer than my others, but I hope you enjoy it. This place is near and dear to my heart.

Erickson Springs is my favorite spot in Colorado too. I haven't been there since 2019 since traffic and construction coming from Denver have been awful the last couple times.
There are some great beetles and other things around too when running lights.

Great video. I especially like the montage at the end showing each year and how your daughter has grown up so much. It brings back memories of my families camping trips where we would all bring our nets and go
collecting wherever we went.
I was in Crested Butte, CO for a week a couple of summers ago, but was not aware of Erikson Springs. I know we travelled that road for a ways out of town for a hiking trip. It sure is a beautiful area.
I will have to check it out if we return some day.

I have footage for a night collecting video there that I'll try and get produced and posted sometime soon. My daughter grew up there! I had her on my back walking the trails at Erikson Springs when she was about two weeks old! Thanks for the kind remarks! Matt |
