Skywatch Friday: Clouds over Mayflower Gulch

Whipped cream like snow, clouds, and blue sky make up the quintessential Colorado winter

Snowshoing season is almost upon us. One of my favorite places is Mayflower Gulch near Copper Mountain in Summit County Colorado. This spectacular spot is good for snowshoeing, back-country skiing, and cross country skiing. It's proximity to Copper Mountain is useful too if half your party prefers traditional Colorado downhill.

Photography here is spectacular year round. See Mayflower in summer, and in the fall.
