This afternoon I traveled round trip from Buena Vista to Silverthorne, taking Fremont Pass over the Continental Divide. From Buena Vista, the weather was sunny and relatively calm. Little did I know I would encounter a gnarly snowstorm on each side of Fremont Pass! Enclosed are a few pictures from my drive.

The adjacent photo is of Clinton Reservoir with Wheeler Mountain in the backdrop. I wish my camera could have captured the "silverness" and "whiteness" of the entire landscape. All I will say is, definitely consider the weather as a factor when traveling Colorado's major passes, including all Continental Divide passes, during the winter. Take it from me! ;)

Below are a three more photos from the snowstorm with captions. You are more than welcome to share your thoughts or comments or the Amazing Colorado forums if you like.
