The Cimarron Valley, near Owl Creek Pass
The Cimarron River valley in southwest Colorado is filled with groves of aspen trees and many imposing mountain peaks. I had driven through here after camping below Owl Creek Pass, and was struck the beauty of the area. Few others were around, even though it was only mid-autumn. Ever since then, I had wanted to return when the fall colors were at their peak. I did that this past weekend, and while the weather wasn't cooperating, I did manage to get a few good photographs.
