The white forest

Pretty I thought. Not every day you will see the forest this way.

I love it when it turns to Narnia. Great picture! I took this coming home from work. Taken from the shoulder of pikes peak looking at poncho pass. I love when the clouds fill in the valleys below. Its probably Narnia down there.

That's the banana belt looking toward Salida. The clouds are covering canon city. The clouds creep up the valley. Sometimes the mountains look like islands. South park is a little to the right. The clouds are in the lower Arkansas valley. I often look at the passes through the Sangres. Lots of treasure out there. I would like to hike music pass with my boys some day. I notice I tend to write kind of choppy. Thanks for your post Tamrock!

Indeed. Great wealth's of treasures are no doubt hidden in these mountains. Just where they are, floods my imagination. I read a story once on how the old time miners of the CCV district would often high grade the owners of the mines the were employed with. They'd get caught and just go to work at an other operation and do it again. The story went on about one miner who high graded a large amount and then went missing. Years later his skeleton was found in the woods alongside a dead buck that he had shot. Apparently he thought the buck was dead and when he went over to it, it got up and stabbed him through the chest with his antlers. So his stash of gold he was said to have was never found.
