catch the storm
Not 5 minutes before, these clouds were dumping hail on Guenella Pass.
Land Under Stars
The view south from the shoulder of Mt. Bierstadt is softened by moonlight
Starvation Creek
A 20+ mile mountain bike day complete with rain and hail brings views of the storms breaking up over Starvation Creek.
Ice Storm
Blowing snow gusts across Echo Lake.
Generic Mountain Picture
Monarch Crest Trail runs along the mountain ridges from Monarch Pass. The picture is too nice not to post, but it tells no story beyond what a beautiful day it was.
North Fork
The North Fork trail cuts through the mountains near Conifer. For one month in early summer the mountains are green and rainy; the same picture taken in July would be a study in browns.
Solar
A solar powered light illuminates the rest stop at Eagle Canyon in Utah. Self-sustaining fixtures make the place feel remote, despite being directly off of I-70.
head in the clouds
Center of frame is the bottom half of Pikes Peak. The size of this mountain only becomes obvious when you’re a long way off; this shot is from 40 miles to the north and it’s still the largest feature of the landscape.
Alpine tracks
The Pikes Peak Cog Railway is one of the highest in North America. The ride and views are highly recommended.
Red Canyon View
This is a view of the rocks which form Red Canyon near Cañon City Colorado. The color forms a striking contrast with that of the nearby mountains.
