Shot of Mount Sopris, Colorado taken yesterday while flying commercial from Denver to Grand Junction. We really did get dumped on. Pray we don’t have the typical Colorado situation wherein it snows early, then changes to sugar snow over the coming dry autumn weeks, eventually becoming the perfect base for avalanches when it starts snowing again. |
