Wow. The San Juan Mountains in Colorado are amazing. We
begin the first morning by shooting Maroon Bells, before traveling
to the Crystal Mill, then southwest to the San Juan Mountains around
Telluride and Ouray. We spend time exploring many of the
well-maintained dirt roads into the San Juan National Forest as well
as shooting the iconic Red Mountain Mining District between Ouray
and Silverton. We finish the final day in Mesa Verde National
Park. This safari is limited to 6 photographers and your
welcome to drive your own vehicle. It is
one breathtaking landscape after another, with wildlife surprising
us somewhere on every trip. We are adding Crested Butte as a
shooting destination for the 2022 safari.
FYI...
Because the Colorado Fall Landscape Safari begins two days after
the Yellowstone Fall Wildlife safari ends, there is a special
discount if you do both safaris, contact me if you would like more
information on the discount, it is substantial.
Reservations
For those not traveling with me we usually meetup in Glenwood
Springs, along Interstate 70. If you intend to fly-in to the safari
or back from it, I would suggest Grand Junction, CO as the
arrival/departure airport, both for the price and car rentals.
Weather is usually cool, but can change suddenly, so I suggest
typical fall high elevation clothing: gloves, knit hat, cold weather
coat, boots, etc.
