Description
While living in the San Luis Valley, this is the view I get to enjoy on my evening walks. Sierra Blanca Massif is a compact cluster of mountain peaks, with the tallest one being Blanca Peak measuring a soaring 14,351ft making it the 4th tallest mountain in the state of Colorado. This formation is part of the dramatic Sangre de Cristo Range running along the Eastern side of the valley where I live.
The sky over these mountains is known for an incredible display of colors both at sunrise and at sunset. I particularly love the imagery when the mountains have a bright, white snow-pack that is illuminated with the setting sun. When the sun sets across in the West, it leaves a gentle, rosy trail of colors over Blanca. The subtle violets and pinks of winter’s alpenglow perfectly frame this most prominent feature seen for miles in every corner of the San Luis Valley in Southern Colorado.
