Some recent pictures of our stunning fall

steamboat_from_chisolm_sam_27sep2015_2626_450x450.jpgI have lots of pictures I need to go through more systematically, but here are six that I quickly grabbed. To the right is our fair town of Steamboat Springs on 25 September as seen from the Sunshine trail as it cuts across Twister. Elk Mountain, also know locally as Sleeping Giant, can be seen just above the aspen tree to the right!

/sunset_09ct2015_sa4_2764_450x450.jpgAnother sunset taken from a similar place on Gunsmoke, but a week later on 9 October.

new_trail_bottom1_sam_210oct2015_2795_450x450.jpgSteamboat has really spent considerable time developing new mountain bike trails on the hill, and this is a new trail that starts at the base of Pony Express and winds through Pioneer Ridge before ending up at Rainbow Saddle. I’d call the trail Prime Rib if it were up to me since it cuts across Middle Rib and the trail has some of the best single track on the hill! Incidentally, the moose on the ‘Big Moose, litlle moose’ post was located along this section of new trail, though this was taken on 21 September.

new_trail_middle_sam_210oct2015_2801_450x450.jpgThis is near the top of the new trail as it enters the aspen forest around Twister on 21 September.

new_trail_middle_rib_sam_27sep2015_2583_450x450.jpgSurprisingly, this was taken on 27 September on the new trail as it winds through the aspen around the Pony Express chairlift. There are a lot of aspen on this trail that change color at different times, lending spectacular color from the lastweek of September through mid-October.
