The Arkansas River - Buena Vista, Colorado
Photos and Video of a Snowy Winter Morning Walk Near the River - December 28, 2008
 |
Buena Vista, Colorado. During the warmer months, this
is a very busy spot for hikers,
mountain bikers, kayakers, rafters and picnicers.
During my visit at 9:30 a.m., it was seven degrees ...
much warmer than the -4 when I woke up at 5:45 a.m. :)

My original intention was to capture a photo of
Mt. Princeton for my Mt. Princeton daily photo web site,
but then I decided to created a video which can be seen below. I figured my friends in warm places like
Florida,
Georgia and
San Diego would appreciate, or at least be amused by it. :)

A very pretty picture, don't you think?

Two closer photos that show the large amounts of ice hovering over the river.

A creative bike rack design. I like it!
