The restored Section House at the top of Boreas Pass, Colorado.
This shot was taken back in July but we again today revisited the buildings that were built in 1882 to house the towns population of 150 who serviced the mining railroad to Breckenridge. The buildings stand at an elevation of 11,500ft and once had the highest post office in North America, they were abandoned in 1937.

Great view and great sky. Love the foreground grass. Is that Ice on he right?

truly awesome - the wide angle works well, the buildings are fascinating, and that sky looks like one massive cloud about to fall.

This kinda reminds me of the Wild Wild West and how rough of a life they had it in surviving. Actually, this feels soulful to me. I think I had to really rough it in a past life, Will. :)
