Deep snow not only made the hike to this abandoned townsite west of Jamestown, Colorado extremely difficult, but also far more interesting than it would have been in the summer. #colorado #history #photography #ruins

After hours of walking on a ridge above the Strontia Springs Reservoir west of Denver, Colorado, I decided to descend and walk on the shoreline, but it turned out that at the one point where the water was accessible from above, there was no shoreline. #colorado #scenery #photography

A surprising number of ditches were built in the mountains of Colorado a hundred or more years ago, and some are still in use, but the ones that needed a flume to bypass rough terrain seem to have been abandoned long ago, like this one near Frisco, Colorado. #colorado #ruins #history #photography

Even though I had no idea what this table was when I found it next to a cabin in the mountains west of Como, Colorado, for some reason I wasn't interested enough to take more than one photo, but it looks like others I've seen in sawmills. #colorado #history #photography #ruins

These bighorn sheep are part of a herd that likes to hang around next to the highway near Georgetown, Colorado, which is the only place I ever see them, even though I've hiked all over the surrounding mountains. #colorado #wildlife #photography

When I found this bottle at a mine in the mountains west of Salida, Colorado, I almost didn't take a picture because I thought it was modern, but it's actually about 130 years old. #colorado #history #artifacts #photography

While hiking in the La Garita Wilderness, north of Creede, Colorado, it was often tempting just to stand and look, but with the farthest ridge on the left yet to be crossed in both directions, there was simply not enough time. #colorado #scenery #photography

While there is plenty of evidence that this miner's cabin has had visitors during the century since it was abandoned, its location high up on the side of a cliff near Montezuma, Colorado, has kept it safe from casual plunderers. #colorado #history #photography

The end of this valley, deep within the Indian Peaks Wilderness northwest of Boulder, Colorado, doesn't seem that far away, but there's another lake up there, and several moose concealed in the dense ground cover between the two lakes. #colorado #scenery #photography

If mine headframes were mass produced, they would probably look like this purely functional example near Central City, Colorado, but they must not have been, because compared to others I've seen, this one would be top of the line. #colorado #history #photography #ruins
