On Tuesday afternoon I drove up Poudre Canyon in search of aspen colors and to get out of town. I was pleasantly surprised to see a few still in good condition and color and I got an extra surprise at Joe Wright Reservoir near Cameron Pass. It was nice with the overcast skies and light rain. I was somewhere around Rustic when the rain began and major wind picked up. I took my time and stopped several times to stretch my legs, take a few photos, stand in the rain and wind and mess up my hair. I could see what looked like heavier rain as I drove farther west and increased in altitude. As you can see I began to see that the higher peaks were covered in snow. Before I reached Joe Wright Reservoir, which is around 10,000 feet in elevation, the rain became sleet then to snow. I had a wonderful time!
