Description

This is a panoramic image of the Town of Breckenridge, located high in the Rocky Mountains of Colorado. I was staying twenty miles away in the town of Silverthorne, on the north side of Dillon Reservoir, so I had to wake up in the pre-twilight hours to arrive at the right time. Alpenglow on the peaks was actually impossible, since Mt. Guyot to the east would be blocking the rising sun. I had planned this trip back in July, and I picked the last week of September, which coincided with the changing of the aspens' leaves. Thanks for looking. FAA watermark WILL NOT show on final printed image.

The historic Town of Breckenridge is the Home Rule Municipality that is the county seat and the most populous municipality of Summit County, Colorado, United States. The town population was 4540 at the 2010 United States Census. The town also has many part-time residents, as many people have vacation homes in the area. The town is located at the base of the Tenmile Range. Summer in Breckenridge attracts outdoor enthusiasts with hiking trails, wildflowers, fly-fishing in the Blue River, mountain biking, nearby Lake Dillon for boating, white water rafting, alpine slides, and several shops up and down Main Street. Every year, Breckenridge hosts the Breckenridge Festival of Film, established in 1981, Ullr Fest every January, as well as an annual Fourth of July parade.
