A Snowy Hike to St. Mary's Glacier!

 Hey guys! I wanted to share this really amazing day hike with you!  The location is near Idaho Springs, Colorado (about an hour outside of Denver) and you should totally add this to your "Must Do" list when visiting Colorado.  I present to you (drum roll please...and can you add one of those shaker eggs...tsss tsst tsss)...ST. MARY'S GLACIER! I recently read this idea for a novel about a chef/blogger who was a killer.  And, she confessed to all her killings in the first couple of paragraphs of her blog, but nobody read it because they skipped right down to the recipe.  So, I shall give you the nitty gritty first, and if you want to read on about all the fluff and my personal opinions, you can.  Shall we? First, this trailhead is about 1.5 hour or less from where I live...a glacier, guys!  A slowly sliding slab of ancient ice. How cool is that?  Second, along with water and a snack (and perhaps some other incidentals), it only costs $5 for parking...
