Looking East from the Ute Trail. November 2013.

Panoramic photo in Rocky Mountain National Park. Hiking along the Ute Trail, looking East thru the gap at Longs Peak at the left and the rest of the Front Range extending to the right. Sunrise is just a few minutes ago but in November that’s not so early. Clear blue sky above with pale haze over the plains to the East. So quiet, at around 10-11,000 ft, 3000-3500m, and no wind, fortunately. November 2013.

Ute Trail, Never Summer Range. October 2015

Photo from Rocky Mountain National Park looking southwest from Trail Ridge Road toward the Never Summer Range across a couple of valleys. At the left a portion of the Ute Trail is visible, heading from the Trail Ridge Visitor Center down, eventually, to the Kawaneechee Valley. The trail was one of several used by the indigenous Ute people and others to cross what are now called the Rocky Mountains to come out to the eastern plains. October 2015.

Bear Lake. October 2014

Bear lake Photo at Bear Lake in Rocky Mountain National Park. The water is absolutely still, reflecting the opposite shore like a mirror. The water line extends across the image just above the center. Pine trees grow down to the edge. A footpath can be seen above the water as a streak of light brown. There is a wooden bridge at center left. There is a light coating of snow in the trees and on rocks above them. At the bottom of the image more snow can be seen reflected in the water. A shallow l…
