Ray Lynch - The San Juan Mountains of Colorado

I used the music of Ray Lynch to accompany some of the photos I've taken over the years while in the San Juan mountains of Colorado (USA). This video is an upgraded version from what was posted previously. At the time the original was deleted (4/1/10) it had been viewed 102 times. Most of the scenes photographed here were taken within a 40 mile radius of Lake City CO, in what was, at one time, the least populated county in Colorado. Lake City is noted for it's access to the "Alpine Loop," several "fourteeners" and many old mining sites and towns, long since abandoned. The area is well known by sportsmen for it's wildlife, hunting, fishing and hiking. Snowmobiles, snowshoeing and cc skiing are popular in the winter months. However there is no alpine skiing, the closest ski area is in Silverton CO. The area is very popular in the summer months with 4x4s and all-terrain type vehicles. This is arguably one of the most scenic areas in CO and the western United Stated for that matter.
