Rocky Mtn Natl Park, Cub Lake Trail

I make a habit of looking behind me frequently when I'm on a trail. This time, I saw someone coming over the rise I'd just come down from.

My heart still starts pounding whenever I look at this. He was no more than 20 feet from me, and he wasn't about to stop for me. I took the shot, and calmly (hah!) backed away off the trail to let him go by.

Photography is my only pathological addiction; hopefully it won't drive me to something worse. :rolleyes: :oops:
