Back into the storm

Snow, anyone

Fall colors and a 'hint' of snow

LEADVILLE, CO - - The sun was shining on the 14,000' peaks surrounding us in Salida.  So, we thought, why not go back up to Monarch Pass.  We did. And, as the top pic shows, there was snow every where including falling from the low clouds.  The parking area was pretty much all ice or icy show.  About three miles back down the road, we caugh a place where we could pull out and take in the grandeur of the Colorado Rockies.
     Right now, we're in Leadville (10,200') and looking at dark clouds and a weather forecast or rain later today and snow heading this way.  We're debating on whether to temp Mother Nature yet again.
