Wilson Peak - San Juan Mountains - Telluride, Colorado


The Wilson Mesa area of Telluride Colorado has some of the world's greatest mountain scenery no matter what the season. To witness it in all of its glory though, one must visit during a small window of time in early October. The aspens turn to gold and the fourteen thousand foot mountains recieve their first major dusting of snow, altering the views in the valley into indescribeable scenes of natural beauty.  It was an incredibly crisp and cold morning when I made this image. Waiting for the first rays of sun to kiss the summit of Wilson Peak was a chilly endeavor. Happily for me the air was clear, the aspens were golden and when the light finally broke on this perfect autumn morning I was able to make the image I was hoping for.

We would occasionally summer up on Wilson's Mesa when I was a kid.  Incredible area (and decent fishing).  Love this image
