The sun rises behind Wetterhorn Peak and Uncompahgre Peak, two 14ers in the San Juan Mountains, #Colorado. #14ers #MountainPhotography #SanJuanMountains
While photographing a particularly popular Colorado landscape in the fall of 2022, I turned around to find this dramatic scene.

Here's the town of #Ouray, #Colorado smothered in fresh snow as the peaks 5,000 vertical feet above town still catch the dusk alpenglow. Easy to see why this place is called the "Switzerland of America". From December 2012. #SanJuanMountains
#Colorado (and much of the western U.S.) is in the midst of an "atmospheric river" winter storm that has dumped 2-3 feet of snow across Colorado so far. This morning Mount Sneffels made an appearance during a brief break in the storm. #SanJuanMountains #14ers
"Orion over Wetterhorn" : #Moonlight illuminates Wetterhorn Peak (14,015 ft), with the Orion constellation directly above. The three most prominent stars in the photo are Sirius, Betelgeuse, and Aldebaran. #SanJuanMountains, #Colorado. #14ers
Precarious (2022)
July 4th hike, Mount Hayden trail from Ironton, about 15 minutes south of Ouray. Ironton is a ghost town at 9800' in elevation.
This is a steep trail. I'm generally in shape, but not in top "hiking" shape... not around here.
Still I did make it over 12,000', above treeline and in the tundra before I ran out of juice.
A stand of golden aspen trees catches rays of light from the morning sun as it rises above the Needle Mountains on the southern approach to Molas Pass Summit.

Pre-dawn light illuminated the north end of Lime Creek Road at the end of September last year as the autumn colors began finding their footing.

The San Juan Mountains in Colorado are an ecological gem! With habitats ranging from alpine tundra to dense forests, they support diverse wildlife like black bears, elk, and the rare Canada lynx. Snowmelt feeds streams and rivers, vital for plant and animal life.
Remember to practice Leave No Trace principles to help preserve this beautiful ecosystem!
