High Points: The long fall

Here we are halfway through November — the temperatures are still in the 50s, and there is more sun than clouds. Everyone is enjoying the extended fall weather, but there is also some concern about the lack of snow and the continuing warm days and nights. Rightfully so. Like so many other valley residents, I have been on the road for much of the fall season. Usually, the first thing I do when I wake up in the mornings when I’m gone is to go online and check out the mountain cams (aspensnowmass.com/four-mountains/mountain-cams) to see what’s going on with the weather back home. I love the views from all the roundshot panoramic cams, but I am most partial to the “Power of Four” streaming images that take me on a trip from Aspen Mountain to the east, all the way across to the twin-peaks of Mount Sopris. Right now, other than the very tops of the mountains that have whitecaps on them, things are looking pretty dry around the valley.
