My wife and I went down to CB last weekend for four days of hiking, biking, relaxing, and stuffing ourselves at the amazing restaurants they have in town. The place is more beautiful and relaxing every time we go down there... and that's quite often. We ended up doing two main hikes- Dark Canyon near Kebler Pass, and Rustler Gulch outside of Gothic. I was able to mix in a few mountain bike rides as well- not bad for a long weekend.
Here are a few pictures from the weekend:
The wildflowers were off the hook, like usual:

The longer you look at that last picture, the more little red flowers pop out. Pretty cool
