The Beautiful Scenery of the Colorado Rockies
It's hard to believe I grew up in the middle of all this towering beauty, Summit County, Colorado.
When you're a kid, it's just mountains but now when I come back to visit my childhood home, the Mountain's Grandeur is overwhelming.
Sapphire Point
Summit County is located among the towering peaks of the Colorado Rockies, just on the west side of the Continental Divide and an hour drive West of Denver.
Buffalo Mountain
The elevation ranges from 7,947 to 14,270 feet above sea level.
Breckenridge ski area
I always gave tourists a weird look when they would tell me how lucky I was to be growing up in such a beautiful place.
Lake Dillon and Buffalo Mountain
Now when I visit, the mountains seem bigger and the views more stunning.

If you think it looks beautiful now wait until you see it covred in snow!

I'm so happy to share the beauty of my home town and I hope someday everyone has the opportunity to see it for themselves.
