Misty, Snowy Mountains

I'm going back to October 1995 for this week's Skywatch Friday entry. It's an old scanned slide, taken one morning while camping not far from the town of Aspen when I woke up to fresh snow and a nearly-collapsed tent.
But the beauty was worth it, and I have more scans to post soon from this trip.

    I haven't visited for a while because I'm still trying to find blogs I followed as Scrappy Grams. I lost my dashboard access for it so I am now Nonnie's Observations. I hope you'll visit me.
