Whiteness of the Rockies


Whiteness of the Rockies
RMNP10D-21
January 3, 2010

Welcome to winter!  The coldest season of the year is upon us, from the Sierra to the Atlantic, and snow is coming.  Now, North Carolina doesn't get as much snow (though some of the shots later this week will show we do get some) as the Rocky Mountains, and these mountains glisten with the powdery white stuff.  Shot on the trail, the snow blanketing one of the many 14,000' peaks of the range, it beckons of adventure and cold fun.  Enjoy.
