Snowstorm at Great Sand Dunes National Park



Han and I drove for hours to get to the sand dunes.  It started snowing as we approached.  By the time we arrived we could not see the dunes, so went to a local waterfall to let it blow past.  there were people throwing a fit about the weather ruining their vacation as we left.  Upon return from our side adventure to Zapata falls,  the snow stopped and revealed the majestic stroke of natures paintbrush.  We hiked up into the snow covered dunes to get a few pictures.  By the time we hiked out, the snow was mostly melted and the moment was gone.  Had the unpleasant people realized when one door closes another one usually opens, they would have seen this as well.  Instead, they were probably driving down the road screaming at each other for their vacation.
