Otherworldly lenticular clouds “invade” Colorado High Country yesterday. These clouds were above Keystone Resort.

Lake Dillon and The Ten Mile Range from Sapphire Point — near Frisco, Colorado. The still-open lake gives up its heat to a cold day in the mountains and will soon be covered with ice. Over 4’ (122 cm) of snow has already fallen up here this month providing a great start for all the nearby ski resorts.

Opening weekend panorama at Keystone. Considering it’s Nov 6th, the ski conditions are really good! It was calm, with abundant sunshine, and temperatures were above 50º F (10º C). Keystone Resort, Colorado.

[Click photo to enlarge] The Bald Mountain climb was rewarding. First, there were some colorful plants like this succulent pictured above. It was at around 13,000’.

[Click photo above to enlarge] I headed over to Copper Mountain early this morning for some New-Year’s-Eve-Day skiing. It was a beautiful. The photo above is a panorama of five photos that were stiched together in Photoshop. They were shot handheld with my small Canon SD800 IS camera. The photo was taken near the top of the Super Bee Lift. Meanwhile, at the base there was hardly a soul around. Copper’s Center Village looked warm and inviting in the golden morning sun. As you can see, I had the slopes almost to myself. I did four runs from top to bottom (over 2000’ vertical drop) in only 80 minutes. It was a glorious way to start the last day of 2008.
