Very nice country!!! I love riding the mountains whenever possible.
On my Dawson Creek BC run last week I was often riding by about 4:30 or 5:00 in the morning and the cool crisp morning air was very refreshing. The mountains generally blocked the sunrise but the riding was perfect. I love that slight chill of the morning air when riding in the mountians during the summer that is often surplanted by much hotter temperatures in the afternoon.Got up early and see the sunrise on maroon bells
Nice pics. I lived in Colorado for about a year when I was kid. As I recall, we lived about 7 miles down the road from Buena Vista toward Leadville, at an elevation of over 7K feet. Hwy 24 I believe? Very beautiful country. I spent a lot of time rockhounding and arrowhead collecting. Loved it out there.
Would you ever go back, seems like the kind of place i could never leave permanentlyNice pics. I lived in Colorado for about a year when I was kid.

I would love to go back... to live. Perhaps I will someday. I currently live in the foothills of the Adirondack mountains... I lived in the Adirondacks for a few years... it was nice, but the Rockies are a whole different scene. Where we lived in Colorado, there were several area peaks in the 14k+ elevation range such as Mt Yale, Mt Harvard, and Mt Princeton. Somewhere I have pictures with the peaks sticking through the clouds. Some of the most awesome scenery I have ever laid eyes on.Would you ever go back, seems like the kind of place i could never leave permanently
