Sunset Photo: Alpine Sunset,
Never Summer Range, Colorado

This photograph was made near timberline somewhere in the north end of the Never Summer Range north of Rocky Mountain National Park in Colorado.

At the time, I was living in a cabin in the upper Poudre River Canyon. I made many trips to the high country in this area, either as day trips or as overnight backpacking trips. On this occasion, I was obviously up high late in the day, probably alone and very far from the road. As usual. Once I get up in the high country it's hard to get me back down. And I don't mean because I'm lost! Although sometimes that happens, too.
