Friday was my first day off work in 10 days so I decided to get up real early to take a morning stroll in the high country. These shots are taken from UN 13,152ft off Loveland Pass. When I started hiking off the pass it was crystal clear but an hour later once I had arrived at my destination the weather had changed dramatically. Here are some quick edits from that morning.

All I can say is incredible! I love #4 they are all great.

These are great shots. I like #1, 2 and 4 the best.
I have been thinking of heading up that way to get some mountain peek scenics. Can you provide where you parked and then where you hiked to? Did you need snow shoes? What time of day did you get up there and how far is the hike to this location? I have not been on Loveland Pass but driven by it a bunch of times. Do you need a 4 wheel drive vehicle or will a car be sufficient?
Thanks,
Tim

Awesome!!! #6 is especially perfect!

Jody, I'd say your morning "stroll" really paid off. All are really fantastic! I especially love the soft pastel look of #3.

Nice stuff Jody. I went up the next morning and I think I went the other direction to pt 12585, though I haven't posted them here.
I like #1, #5 and #6 from the series.

Wonderful set, Jody. I love the soft morning light. Can't pick a favorite from this group.

Great stuff, Jody!

#1 and #2 are my favorites, but they are all great images. Are you shooting digital now? I may have missed that transition.

Nice stuff, Jody. Photos like this keep me inspired to get outside.

The detail on that foreground slope is impressive, I also like #4 and #6

I love the sky and contrast in #6. Nice work!

They're all good!
When you say a 'morning stroll', you surely do mean it!!

Wow, what a collection! they all rock but 2,4,5 are my faves--fantastic shots! Dont know if youre doing anything differently but i dont see any of the color issues here that i saw in previous posts, the pp here looks absolutely perfect--so keep it up!
