Every year I take a ride up to the top of Tesuque Peak (where Ski Santa Fe is located) to see the fall colors. The road winds up the mountain for 15 miles until it reaches the top. On the way up, you go through giant fields of aspen trees. The golden yellow aspen trees against the clear blue sky is an amazing sight. The leaves look like little silver dollars and make a gentle rustling sound with the wind.
This picture is from the top of the mountain - about 12,000 feet up. Talk about a nice picnic spot. The mountains in the distance are the Sandia (by Albuquerque) and the Ortiz mountains to the left (by Madrid). The beauty of this place never ceases to amaze me.
The rains have stopped for now. The days are clear and warm. The nights are cool and crisp. Winter is on the way.
