Nature photography Tour – San Juan Mountains Wild Flowers

In late July the flowers at 10,000+ feet are spectacular.  I spent two weeks in the San Juan Mountains in southern Colorado photographing nature and flowers, what a great time.  I’m not a botanist and probably couldn’t pronounce the names of the flowers even if I knew how to spell them but I didn’t let a little thing like that get me down. I was based at the KOA Campground in Cortez  which allowed me great access to the mountains.

I recommend some time during the last two weeks of July or the first week of August
Get a forest map to locate access onto the forest and enjoy.
