Sawtooth Sunset

from $75.00

I was driving my roommate up Mount Blue Sky to show him the view from the top of the Front Range and a good stretch of the Rocky Mountains. The peak was renamed from Mount Evans in 2023, and the road to the summit is the highest paved road in North America.

We left later in the day than I meant to and only made it as far as one of the overlooks before the sun went down, but that turned out to be lucky. The whole western sky exploded in a fiery orange sunset. Grays and Torreys Peaks stood right in the middle of it, with the Sawtooth ridge running between them. There was still quite a bit of snow holding onto peaks and down in the gullies, which is normal up here on the first of June.

It only lasted a few minutes. Anyone who has spent an evening in these mountains knows the line John Denver wrote about the sky catching fire, this was one of those moments.
