Mills Creek during the peak summer color in the Colorado Rockies outside of Idaho Springs. We hiked to Bill Moore Lake and did some exploring of the area and found that the mountain flowers were blooming next to the creek and this little waterfall. It was a perfect location for lunch and some tranquility.
Mill Creek Afternoon
Enjoying the beautiful Rocky Mountain afternoon sitting next to this little waterfall on Mill Creek above Bill Moore Lake. The sounds of the cascading waterfall and the colors of flowers enticed me to sit and just meditate before sauntering further on the trail.
Valley with Geneva Creek
A view east down the valley of Geneva Creek near Guanella Pass in the Front Range Mountains of Colorado. Just after sunset in the western peaks, this was a good look down this popular camping area with ponds and the meandering creek.
Falls into Pool on Three Mile Creek
The Mount Evans Wilderness is a wonderful place to find cool locations. This is a beautiful waterfall off one of the trails into the heart of the wilderness.
Mount Guyot in August
A look back to Mount Guyot on a hike to Whale Peak in the Front Range Mountains of Colorado. Guyot is one of my favorite peaks and his very distinguishable from its east and south faces. Definitely a Colorado Rockies Icon. This photo was taken on an Iphone 7 I had on me for that hike.
Landscape Photographer on Mount Evans
This was the other photographer on Mount Evans that evening trying to capture the fantastic light after sunset. It was fun being the only 2 souls on the summit just as dark was descending over this Colorado fourteener.
Traildog on the Ridges near Whale Peak
Teig and I love hiking the Rocky Mountain highlands in the Front Range Mountains west of Denver. There are locations where you don’t run into a single other soul on a hike. This was one of those days when we hiked to Whale Peak in late summer.
