VAIL VALLEY DAILY PHOTO: A QUICK TRIP ABOVE TIMBERLINE -

Last Wednesday was just the kind of day that cried for a quick trip above timberline. We are expecting snow up high (right about here) in the next few days and we knew this was probably the last chance this year to get out for some really high vistas without boards under our feet. What an amazing place we live in! Out the door at 8:00, 12,500 feet by 10:00 and back down by 1:00 for a beer and a nice lunch at Vendeta's on Bridge Street. Hootie the Golden thouroughly enjoyed the experience too. What a rat race!

Wow! GREAT shot John. I have only been there when there is snow on the ground.

Hi John, Nice to see this. The photo is just stunning. Will we see this again with snow? A Before and After would be very cool, :-)

Sorry, William. Too hard to get up here in the winter without a chopper! I'll probably have a couple of winter shots from the top of Vail Mountain soon. Same views but a lot easier to get to!
