Stan's Trees

This post is admittedly shameful on at least two levels. First, in its reference to Stan Rose and one of his favorite subjects (hope you don’t mind Stan), and second, in how easy it was to get. No long hikes, no scrambling in dangerous locales. It was captured at the rest area on top of Wilkerson Pass a few steps down the dog walk path. Grabbed the shot while my wife was tending to our dog. The biggest danger was stepping in a plunky left by an irresponsible dog owner. But I'm not yet familiar with the routes to more exotic sites and these trees were just too good to pass up. I really like the way aspens can be found with evergreens in the background. So, here's to you Stan, those red aspens are something to see.
