[+] Here’s some photos from a flight today over the Colorado Rockies, from Denver to Montrose. I had a window seat on the south side of the plane, with good views of the Sawatch and Elk Mountains. I noticed that the snow became more and more dusty towards the west side of the mountains; the western-most peaks were completely smothered in orange/brown dirt.
More photos below.
Chocolate snow.
It is clearly evident how profoundly the Arizona dust storms have affected the mountains in western Colorado. What a shame.
