Angel of the Mountain

Mt. Evans, CO

Taken Friday at the summit of Mt. Evans in Colorado. Mt. Evans is 14,264 ft.. You can drive to the top of the mountain. Unfortunately on Friday the last 5 miles of the road were closed. I had to hike to the summit where the Mt.goats graze.

These creatures are so beautiful and graceful. They seemed to float from rock to rock as they move about on the summit of this mountain. There were about 20 in the herd I photographed. They were very tolerent of me and I had incredible afternoon of photography!!!
