Kali takes a break on a lingering patch of snow that we encountered during an early summer hike on Rollins Pass, west of Boulder, Colorado. #kali #kuvsasz #dogs #colorado #photography

An old, dilapidated stone mine building with a wooden headframe in the middle, surrounded by snow and trees.
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
A snowy landscape featuring tall evergreen trees in the foreground and rocky mountains under a blue sky in the background.
A rock formation North of Estes Park, Colorado, called Lumpy Ridge, after a short winter storm. #colorado #scenery #photography
A weathered log cabin surrounded by greenery and wildflowers, set against a forested backdrop.
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
A black and white image of a snowy forest with tall, slender trees.
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
A rusted piece of wheeled machinery is positioned in a grassy area with red rock formations in the background.
This machine west of Denver, Colorado looks like a road grader, but it might have been used for farming. #colorado #scenery #history #artifacts #photography
A serene garden scene featuring lush greenery, stone pathways, and a red torii gate in the background.

A valley with vibrant yellow foliage, green coniferous trees, and dry, brown trees, set against a clear blue sky and mountainous background.
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
A man kneeling in the snow next to a rustic wooden cabin, with a white dog lying nearby, surrounded by trees.
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

A mountainous landscape with dilapidated buildings on a steep slope and a small lake in a valley, under a clear blue sky with few clouds.
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
A panoramic view of a rocky landscape with towering boulders, pine trees, and a blue sky.
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
A dilapidated wooden cabin surrounded by lush greenery and mountains under a cloudy sky.
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
A cactus with three pink flowers and yellow centers, surrounded by rocky ground.
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
An abandoned log cabin surrounded by tall pine trees and rocky terrain, with a mountainous backdrop and a blue sky.
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
A scenic view of a landscape featuring hills and cliffs, with patches of snow on the ground and a clear blue sky.
The Pawnee National Grassland, northeast of Greeley, Colorado, is an interesting place to explore, even in the winter. #colorado #scenery #photography

A fluffy white dog lying in the snow during a blizzard, with trees in the background.
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
A wooden mine headframe and tipple in a snowy landscape, surrounded by evergreen trees.
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
A large marmot, with a long tail curled forward, resting on large rocks.
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
A weathered wooden house with a sagging shingled roof, surrounded by greenery and trees.
This abandoned house outside Nevadaville, Colorado is slowly being engulfed by aspen. #colorado #history #photography #ruins
A panoramic view of red rock formations and green vegetation in a canyon landscape under a cloudy sky.
North of Berthoud, Colorado, the Red Mountain Open Space contains a maze of red canyons filled with dense ground cover. #colorado #scenery #photography
Interior of a dilapidated structure with wooden beams, a rusted ore cart, and scattered rocks and debris, looking out towards trees.
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

A scenic landscape featuring rocky peaks, snow-covered areas, and a blue sky with clouds.
Looking west from Chair Rocks, which is near Buffalo Creek, Colorado, with the Cathedral Spires in the foreground and Mount Blue Sky in the distance. #colorado #scenery #photography
An abandoned, rusted bulldozer on rocky terrain with some snow, and a large white dog walking nearby.
It didn't seem like Kali really cared all that much when we unexpectedly found an old bulldozer on top of a mountain south of Montezuma, Colorado. #kali #kuvasz #dogs #colorado #history #artifacts
A mountainous landscape with rocky cliffs, green trees, and remnants of mining structures.
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
A serene landscape featuring a calm pond reflecting trees and mountains under a clear blue sky.
In late June east of Allenspark, Colorado, frogs have gone silent and it looks like summer, but there's still snow in the foothills above ten thousand feet. #colorado #scenery #photography
An old, rusted piece of drilling equipment lying among pieces of plumbing, rocks, and gravel.
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
A rocky cliff with patches of green trees and vibrant yellow foliage in the foreground, set against a partly cloudy sky.
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
