The Aspens are peaking right now in the high country around 9,000 ft.  Beautiful day yesterday, rode 210 miles on the Front Range Twisties and took a few shots.  S.O. got hungry so we had to quit and go hit lunch on the Peak-to-Peak at Bob's Last Stop Saloon a few miles S. of Rollinsville.  Otherwise I would have got more shots with scenics.  Great food, outside seating in the patio/picnic area under the trees S of the building.  Don't sit in the Gazebo if the wind is west, they are having a problem with the septic system and you can smell it there.  So we moved to the picnic area, got great service from Christy.  The chow is just outstanding.  I had the Ribeye sandwich with frings.  Drinks were free for us as they got hammered so we had to wait longer tha usual - Christy felt bad and bought us drinks - coulda been hard drinks but we were riding so we stayed with the root beer.  Lotta bikers out, mostly HD's of course but everybody we talked to was in a great mood on a beautiful day.  No attitudes...  Saw a really great looking custom chopper parked by the door, shoulda took a photo.

This shot is about 9,000 ft on the East side of Squaw Pass.





These are on the West side of the pass, below Echo Lake, altitude about the same.
