Colorado Fall Colors - a photo on Flickriver

This isn't a spectacular photo, but one that I felt compelled to post because the colors were just so brilliant on the Eastern side of the Great Sand Dunes along Medano Creek, especially along the Northern section on the Medano Pass Primitive Road near First Crossing. The sun had already peaked and was working it way towards a sunset, but hadn't as yet been masked in the creek by the dunes giving full lighting onto the creek bottom trees and shrubs, as well as, the Western mountain slop and casting some shadows onto the Eastern sloping of the dunes. The other reason for posting this image was to also mention how great it was to have perfectly dry feet while standing in the middle of this creek and after hiking in it for a good distance. I am a Keen professional and use their shoes and socks at work and in outdoor adventures. In this case I was waring a pair of Keen Targhee II waterproof shoes. True as advertised. Dry feet while stomping around in the creek. Also foot sweat was absence while hiking in the dunes and along trail. For the readers of this post, all I can say is that it is worth your while trying on a pair at a good quality outdoor gear store where there is a rocky testing area. You'll be amazed. Or check out their website at www.keenfootwear.com. One final note is that their socks are tagged as a right and left sock, which reduces the sock bunching in the toe socket of the shoe. Check out these other flickr photos from this location, see: Great Sand Dune Pano and Great Sand Dune Grass.
