This photo was taken in May of 2001, the only time I have been in the Rocky mountains in the spring. It's often very cold at high altitudes in May, but that year it was lovely and warm with temperatures in the 20's Celsius. Sunny days with lots of snow on the mountains made for stunningly beautiful scenery. When walking, it was sometimes possible to be quite warm and then suddenly to experience a brief chill as cold air descended from a nearby mountain. How exhilarating!
