Like a lot of the other buildings in the hills around Central City, Colorado, once the wood structure collapses and rots, only the enduring stone walls will remain. #colorado #ruins #history #photography

I've never seen a cabin with boards on the corners rather than notched logs, and I'm surprised that this one north of Leadville, Colorado didn't fall apart a long time ago. #colorado #ruins #history #photography

Aspen groves, like this one northwest of Ward, Colorado, look great in any season, and during the summer and fall there's the added benefit of hearing their leaves rustle in the wind. #colorado #scenery #photography

This machine west of Denver, Colorado looks like a road grader, but it might have been used for farming. #colorado #scenery #history #artifacts #photography

Deep inside the La Garita Wilderness, north of Creede, Colorado, trees that were killed by beetles are slowly being replaced by new ones. #colorado #scenery #photography

The most interesting things we found during a hike near Empire, Colorado, were in a narrow valley that we followed for no other reason than to close a loop. #kali #kuvasz #dogs #ruins #history #photography

This mine, and what is left of its associated buildings, is near the top of 14,286 foot Mount Lincoln, south of Breckenridge, Colorado. #colorado #history #photography #ruins #scenery

Southwest of Denver, Colorado, the Lost Creek Wilderness gets its name from the creek that runs though this valley, which disappears underground for long distances and then erupts out of the rocks again, sometimes with great force. #colorado #scenery #photography

This homestead, which was clearly visible from a well traveled road east of Keystone, Colorado, was surrounded by bushes so dense that it remained relatively undisturbed for nearly a century before finally collapsing. #colorado #ruins #history #photography

Because of where they grow, cactus are usually pretty obvious, but the small ones are easy to overlook until they are suddenly bursting with flowers, like this one near Buffalo Creek, Colorado. #colorado #photography #cactus #flowers

It would be interesting to know if this abandoned house west of Nederland, Colorado belonged to the owner of the nearby mine, or if it was occupied by people who stayed behind after the miners left. #colorado #history #photography #ruins

Water is great, but the best way to get Kali to smile is to go for a hike in a blizzard, like we did on this day, east of Empire, Colorado. #kali #kuvasz #dogs #colorado #scenery

The headframe at this mine near Black Hawk, Colorado is pretty typical, but the stone platform that was built for the hoist machinery seems kind of extravagant for such a small operation. #colorado #history #photography #ruins

Marmots are usually pretty skittish, but except to keep an eye on me when I walked past during a hike near Caribou, Colorado, this one barely moved. #colorado #wildlife #photography

Cabins, machine shops, and other structures are usually clustered around mine openings, but this cramped building above Georgetown, Colorado was built at the entrance to a tunnel, possibly to allow work during the winter. #colorado #history #photography #ruins

The narrow canyons north of Creede, Colorado would certainly have been better off had they not been mined, but the precariously perched structures and sprawling tailing piles do add a lot of interesting details to the view. #colorado #history #photography #ruins #scenery

This is part of a rock drill that I found on the side of a mountain near Breckenridge, Colorado, far from any evidence of the machinery that would have been necessary to provide compressed air. #colorado #history #photography #artifacts

The hills around Camp Hale, which was an Army 10th Mountain Division training base near Leadville, Colorado, is a good place to see aspen change color in the fall. #colorado #scenery #photography
