The Front Range

Leaving Denver
The Front Range

Can you see the smoky haze on the horizon?  We spent the night in Denver on July 4th and then boarded the Amtrak for Glenwood Springs on the 5th.  According to the news, there were numerous fires burning in Colorado.  The mountains could not be seen from a distance of 20 miles away - the Denver airport. 

The area before the Rocky Mountains begin is called the Front Range.  I snapped away with the Nikon and deleted about 2/3 of the pictures.  The beauty of the area along with the altitude took my breath away. 

with thanks for the beauty of the earth.....
