I'd read the tale many years ago that author Ernest Thompson Seton wrote in his book "Wild Animals I Have Known." Needless to say, when I came up to this setting at the Arizona-Sonora Desert Museum and saw these two Mexican Gray Wolf for the first time, I could only think back of memories of that moving tale with Lobo and Blanca...about how amazing and impressive the native wild creatures are all around us. That's what this image is about for me. Not just two Mexican gray wolves but the story with two remarkable wolves and their story in the American West.
I slipped down Hover Road to an untested trek along Lefthand Creek on the LoBo (Longmont to Boulder Trail) and parked on a new city street. I started it once before but never got west of Hover Road (here). Recently, I was curious and tripped down onto the Lefthand river bottoms and snapped this image that sat in my edit directory for a couple of months it seems. Winter finally followed the nasty fall and now we are 20 degrees over again. Another fool the trees into leafing and jerk the football away. The last autumn already roasted the river bottom tree colors to their max for the season. This spot comes up short of leaves until spring. The sky returned to normal clouding on the day though. The scene is pretty bare now though.
I checked it out on Google maps and in reality the trail really peters out by the time it get to the town of Niwot. I checked out the trail on the maps and it looks likew there are interests further along this pathalong Lefthand. The day was already stretching on so I will have to get an earlier start nexr time. Even with so many snaps in my directories, pictures are stall all around the valley when better skies start to come around. Today I am waiting for decent days and skys before even chancing a photo trek. No skies again today - what global warming?
