Fall colors with snow-capped mountains, Ridgway, Colorado, USA
The San Juan Mountains are a high and rugged mountain range in the Rocky Mountains in southwestern Colorado and northwestern New Mexico. The area is highly mineralized (the Colorado Mineral Belt) and figured in the gold and silver mining industry of early Colorado. Major towns, all old mining camps, include Creede, Lake City, Silverton, Ouray, and Telluride. Large scale mining has ended in the region. The San Juan and Uncompahgre National Forests cover a large portion of the San Juan Mountains

EDITORS COMMENTS
This breathtaking print captures the enchanting beauty of Ridgway, Colorado in all its glory. The vibrant fall colors paint a picturesque scene against the backdrop of snow-capped mountains, showcasing nature's stunning transition from summer to winter. Located in the heart of the San Juan Mountains, this region is not only known for its rugged terrain but also for its rich mining history. Once a thriving hub for gold and silver mining during early Colorado's boom years, towns like Creede, Lake City, Silverton, Ouray, and Telluride still bear witness to their past as old mining camps. The area's mineral-rich landscape played a significant role in shaping Colorado's mining industry. However, large-scale mining operations have ceased long ago. Today, what remains are remnants of an era gone by and the majestic San Juan and Uncompahgre National Forests that blanket these mountains. Danita Delimont skillfully captured this awe-inspiring scenery that showcases both natural wonders and historical significance. This print serves as a reminder of the harmonious coexistence between human endeavors and Mother Nature's grandeur. Whether you're an admirer of landscapes or someone with an appreciation for history, this image will transport you to Ridgway - where fall colors meet snow-capped peaks - offering solace amidst nature's splendor.
