Red Hot Cinnamon Pass
Ever since I found out Colorado has fourteeners, I've been trying to climb them. Ever since I learned the name of Redcloud Peak, the 46th tallest peak in Colorado, I've wanted to photograph a red cloud above the mountain.
Finally had my first opportunity over the holiday weekend. The fabulous fourteener showed its best hues, but the clouds didn't quite cooperate. Aerosmith sings this [really strange] song that goes, "Pink... it's like red but not quite." Couldn't have described the San Juan cloud cover any better.
Meanwhile, over my shoulder, another set of clouds over Cinnamon Pass was singing, "Shoot me! Shoot me!"

Dusty words lying under carpets,
seldom heard, well must you keep your secrets
locked inside, hidden deep from view?
You can talk to me... (Stevie Nicks)
