🌧️WELCOME TO MUD DAY 2026 at Cheyenne Mountain State Park!

Well… Mother Nature decided our garden crew needed a little extra character building today. 😂
Today we:
🌿 Planted new perennials
💦 Realigned irrigation lines that our resident wildlife had apparently redesigned
🍂 Spread a fresh layer of mulch
🧼 And created some very impressive mud sculptures… mostly on ourselves!

We had hoped this would be our LAST garden day of the season, but apparently the gardens weren’t quite ready to let us go. We’ll be back later next month for a little more mulch and a few finishing touches.

So, while we may be muddy, soggy, and slightly questionable-looking, the gardens are looking FANTASTIC!

We went to the top of the mountain!

Sixteen Friends members and board members went to the top of Cheyenne Mountain on September 13th. They enjoyed the views from the top and then hiked around the top or down the Dixon Trail. Thanks to Rocky Mountain Ride for the lift to the top!
