Nokhu Crags Snow Kiss
This shot requires an explanation. This morning, Peter and I did the 3 1/2 hour drive back home from Steamboat Springs, Colorado. It snowed a LOT while were were there for our annual ski fest in the mountains and it was a great adventure. We both felt like we skied better than we ever have in deep powder, bumps, steeps and low visibility conditions. Our drive today coincided with the reappearance of the sun. This was our view of the mountains as we neared Cameron Pass at 10,276 feet. You’re seeing the effect of the wind as it blows a snow-kiss!
Did I stray too far for this challenge? Or was it just wacky enough to make you smile?

Wow, Cathy! You always have lovely pictures!
Thank you so much! I was really glad I took my camera on the trip~
I think that sunny moment was meant for you. What a beautiful picture, Cathy!
Thanks, Amy! The drive was simply spectacular! When you lived in Colorado, did you ever do the drive to Steamboat over Cameron Pass? It’s one of my favorites in the state.
No…I never did, darn it! I bet it is beautiful. Thanks for capturing a piece of it for us.
Beautiful photo, Cathy! Thank you for sharing it.

I approve of wackiness in virtually all forms. Even virtual.
Thanks, Jennifer. I’m glad to have your approval!
I think you did a very creative take on the challenge– not too far! Loved it
