| View from Blue Peak this morning, looking southerly at Mountain Boy region of Independence Pass, Colorado. (Click to enlarge.) A cold front moved through yesterday and last night, leaving a coating of white above about 11,000 feet. Since the terrain in the Independence Pass area reaches to 13,000 and 14,000 feet, that leaves plenty of room to play. |
