Winter was supposed to come early to southern Colorado and Cripple Creek last night... we got a little snow and some cold but the worst of the storm came in the form of some very dense and treacherous fog for anyone trying to drive through the darkness. It did make for a beautiful night in … Continue reading Top of the Ridge
It was a beautiful crisp morning... the hint of fall definitely in the air here at almost 9,000 feet high in the Rocky Mountains. After a long week of drudgery and stress I knew I was in need of a road trip and the puppies needed their hike so I decided to take care of … Continue reading First Snow
Got some good hiking in this morning, now working on staying ahead of the curve by getting some more winter pictures done. Have to say, these images of our Mount Elbert winter hike in January of 2016 have to be some of the most memorable shots I have ever taken. It was a beautiful morning … Continue reading Rocky Mountain Winter
Just when I thought I had found the superhighway to the high peaks of the Ute Pass northern ridge, I find myself thwarted by a gate and a no trespassing sign 😦 I finally got an early enough start in the cool of the day to really take a run at that trail with the … Continue reading The Dilemma
I wasn't quite satisfied with yesterday's image, it didn't convey the coldness that I intended. This morning I decided to bring it back up and use a Photoshop technique I invented some time back for black and white renditions of deer in snow. One time I was working on one of those blizzard images and … Continue reading Black and White
The weekend before the big Fourth of July holiday week, also the time for the mass migration of city people to the mountains... Lol, the tourists are like, "where are all the fireworks booths"? Mountain people... there aren't any, we kind of frown upon burning down the mountains for entertainment. My town is on a … Continue reading Hiding in My Cave
Totally resisting going out into the world this morning. Monday on the job getting harder and harder to face... After three days off from my unfortunate necessary supplemental job, the old body feels mostly like I haven't been run over by a truck and I am not looking forward to the return of the pain. … Continue reading Ebb and Flow
The weather changes fast in Colorado, that much is certain! A few days ago I was making my morning rounds, the gym, the grocery store, the library, etc. until I finally ran out of things to do. So I stopped at my favorite Pikes Peak viewing location to walk the doggies. When I was done … Continue reading Difference a Few Days Can Make
Winters are long in the high country but I hope that this early May snowstorm will mark the end of winter 2017. Snow fell for 24 straight hours and the temperature dipped to 13 degrees on May Day Eve. Getting out the winter parka and relighting the pilot light on the furnace can be a … Continue reading Last Vestiges of Winter
My recently purchased Keen lows are great for wearing around the well worn trails of the valley I live in, but I needed something more substantial for the rocky terrain of the high country. After quite a few months of procrastination I finally settled on the Asolo Fugitive GTX mids. The boots feelsturdy and well … Continue reading Field Test, Asolo Fugitive GTX Hiking Boots
