Guanella Pass

This was taken up a Guanella Pass. Left Fort Collins at around 0230 and got there at about 0530 after having to go up a very rough road from Georgetown. The road is under construction and it really tells. Heavy wash boarding in areas and holes that would swallow small cars. Had two areas of single lane construction with traffic lights controlling the flow. Did not have to wait too long. Saw two beautiful small lakes on the way up. One, was a private lake and the other one looked like was used for hydro power by Xcel Energy. Got there early enough to plan out the first part of what I wanted to take pictures of and to setup my camera for the morning. and to just relax and look at the scene that early morning. Shot 100 photos while up there in the morning and did not realize that till I looked later at the camera. This is one of my favorites from that morning.

Well till later
