We all know the weather here in Colorado is unpredictable. And also sometimes it brings surprises like snowfall in May, for example. Right, that happened a few years ago and there was a few inches of snow in Denver overnight. Next day the hot sun quickly melted the snow blanket and everything looked nice and green again.
But we found a different picture when we wanted to hike to Table Mountain next to Golden. The road up the plato was covered with light snow...
...But everything changed when we hiked up to the plato - everything was absolutely white and the thick layer of snow blanketed everything (and I mean it, there was a couple of feet of snow on the ground there this morning).
Everything looks incredible... Combination of white snow and dark rocks was great.
And... green cacti and flowers here and there...
Just a few hours later most of the snow just melted and the flowers were out again ;)
And the blooming flowers were peeking from under the snow.
Table Mountain is a great place for climbing and a few flurries couldn't stop the people from having fun...
And as always, the views there were just astonishing and powdered mountain ridges looked amazing...
Pictures were taken on May 20, 2017.
