Telluride has the BEST rainbows. After a quick afternoon shower, there is almost always a rainbow. But I would have to say, I don't know if I have ever seen such a LOW rainbow.
Wow

Sunday Sunset
I was beat after my hike, but it looked like a beautiful sunset, so I exited at to the top of the 'g' and took a few photos.
Sneffels Highline Trail (My first attempt)
I heard so many great things about this hike, and was very excited about it. It is a +13 mile round trip starting from my house ~8740 feet to 12270 feet at the pass.
On Sunday, I headed out. The first section was very lush, green and peaceful.
However, I was not expecting the amount of snow (still) at the higher elevations. Lots of postholeing along the way. At the top of the pass into Mill Creek Basin, it was filled with snow. With a scary looking storm coming, and no ice axe, and not sure how solid the snow was, I turned around.
This was a good thing. On the way back, I found my cell phone and headlamp sitting in the trail. UGH. So, if I had done the loop, I would not have found them. Some good karma coming back to me.
Enjoy...
ps. I can't wait to revisit this diverse hike.

Walked to Mountain Village
Today, I made a loop by going to the top of the Gondola on T-Trail (2.6 miles +1800 feet). Then down the Ridge trail (2 miles, -1000 feet) Thru Mt. Village (~0.5 mile -200). Down Boomerang Road (1 mile -700 feet) Up the River Trail (1.75 miles, +100 feet).
Total 7.85 miles, +1900 feet. A nice afternoon.

Balloon Glow
I hiked up Tomboy road to watch the Balloon Glow on Main Street. I wish I would have gotten higher, but here are a few photos.
Balloon Rally
Kodak must love Balloon Rallys. EVERYBODY was taking pictures (including me, but digital). I tried to go for some non-traditional shots.
The conditions where not favorable for flying, maybe tommorow.
