2024 Summer Vacation

A small selection of photos


Yankee Boy Basin at sunrise, with Mt. Sneffels and Cirque Mtn in the background. We had been taking pictures before sunrise, further down the road. The sky turned red just as we arrived here. I jumped out, grabbed the camera and tripod, and took a few photos. The red was already fading when I started, and was gone within a minute or two.


Potosi Peak above Yankee Boy Basin.


Another Yankee Boy Basin shot, with Mt. Sneffels and Cirque Mtn.

Waterfall in Porphyry Basin.


Wildflowers in American Basin.


Cinnamon Pass.


The D&S train in Silverton.

Rough roads in Poughkeepsie Gulch. The rocks are much bigger than they appear in these photos.

He's so ugly he's cute, whatever he is.
