An Amazing Sunset

After a full day of work grading essays, two large busloads of AP people left the campus of CSU about 5pm, we drove for about 2hours to Rocky Mountain National Park. We were at about 12,000 feet. It was cold about 50 degrees or so and very windy. We spent about 45 minutes at the top hiking in the snow. Then back down the mountain.

It was a beautiful trip and I took many photos, here is a selection of some of them.

Tomorrow back to grading again.
