Flatirons First Snow

co-06975-79-pano-blogBoulder Flatirons – First Snow, Winter 2011

The Front Range of Colorado experienced its first snow of the 2011 winter season this week with some areas receiving up to 12″ of the white stuff. Trees and shrubs are beautifully laden with thick white clumps of snow creating a winter wonderland. And Thursday’s clear sunrise lit the entire range with a rich pink glow.

Chautauqua City Park and the Boulder Flatirons in Boulder, Colorado is one of my favorite locations to visit after heavy winter storms. And I’m not alone. ;-) If you look closely you can see many tracks made by sledders, snowboarders, skiers and hardy trail runners. And why not? What a beautiful location to go out and play in the cold and snow!
