Photo Tour Finalized--Saturday, June 3

Pat Nolan of Colorado Springs and I are going to lead a photo tour into the hills southeast of Buena Vista on Saturday, June 3rd.

We'll visit the little community of Badger Creek (at the headwaters of the creek which enters the Arkansas River); some wonderful places in Castle Rock Gulch including an intimate little alcove, aspen stands, and some fine beaver-engineering; then finally a grand vista into and across the Upper Arkansas Valley which is pictured here. We'll be looking for the big vistas as well as the small details--finding plenty of each.

We'll start early so that light will be at its best, and go into the hills from the eastern side. To register ($40), please contact Patricia Nolan at 719-540-2878 in Colorado Springs (RIVERPHOTO at aol dot com). Or Tom Rampton at 719-395-2706 (rampton at blacktail-enterprises dot com). Tom may possibly be gone for several days between now and then.

I hope that some of you can join us on this photographic adventure!
