SNOW PICTURES AT COTTONWOOD PASS! (October Snowstorm in Colorado)
October 9, 2005
|
So here's what happened... I took a drive into Cottonwood
Canyon from Buena Vista and planned to maybe take some final autumn photos. The weather was dreary with drizzling rain,
but I still got some decent shots. As I continued uphill in the canyon, the drizzling rain turned into sleet,
and before I knew it, I was in the midst of a pretty darn strong snowstorm!
So for those of you who love snow ... :) |

I was too lazy to get out of the car for this photo and the two snow pictures below. ;) |

Wheeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee! |

Here are some of my other snow picture pages: Snow in Manitou Springs Snow in Teller County Snow Covered Peaks in Chaffee County |

The Cottonwood Pass summit is a really special and sentimental place for me. Altitude 12,126 Feet! :) |

Visibility was poor. Note the woman in the right photo looking out.
