Bike Commute

In honor of last weeks bike to work week I did an early morning panorama of the back trail to Fraser from Winter Park.  I found a great view of both towns while hiking along the ridge this afternoon.  I'm going tonight to take a pano of that.

Fraser River Trail VR Tour

Here's a link to a virtual tour I did of the Fraser River Trail.  FRASER RIVER TRAIL LINK <-- If you click here you will view the movie in your web browser, if you save right click or ctrl+click on a mac and "save link as" you can download it.  I recommend doing this because when you open the file it will play fullscreen. 


The movie is 15megs since I added U2 - a beautiful day to play as the background music.

Grand County Rain!

Dsc_7385

These clouds finally darkened and rained yesterday evening.  Yes, this was the first rain of Winter Park this spring.  All of our rain showers have been the frozen white stuff until now.  As they say Spring snow melt brings Summer flowers; or something corny like that.

Devil's Thumb Sunrise

Sunrisedevilsthumb

Couldn't sleep this morning for some reason.  Woke up at 6 am and sunrise is at 619, so I headed to the car to see if I could get some morning shots.  I took a bunch of the typical mountain peaks getting hit with the first few rays, but the one that turned out the best was the one taken just as the sun was about to crest the continental divide over Devil's Thumb.
    I also passed Crazy's vacation home and snapped a photo of his sign out front.  Crazydogranch

SAN JUAN BOMB - Fly Fishing the Colorado River

Trout_2 Hotsulpher_3

Polebend_2
    Spent some time on the water today just outside of Hot Sulpher Springs.  Using a San Juan worm I was able to connect with over a dozen trout in 2 hours.  The water is still quite fast and murky due to the snow melt,
but I have found a spot on the Colorado River where I know I can go and catch fish realitively easily.  My largest was a strong 17 inch brown, that I reluctently admit struck the fly as I was getting ready to cast again.  Taking photos while fishing although tricky, is definately worth it after looking at what I got today.

Most people probably won't understand, and it may not be epic.  But, for all those transplants out there or the ones who dream of it...you do.

Thanks to everyone who sent me birthday wishes.  Have a happy weekend.
