This photo, of the Ten Mile Range, was shot on January 14, 2009. The Ten Mile Range extends from Frisco south past Breckenridge. It is a popular hiking range in the summer, and several of the undeveloped mountains are skiied in the winter. And naturally Breckenridge spans 4 of the peaks in the range. In this photo you can also see a small sample of the trees that have been affected by the pine beetle. It is much more visible in other parts of Summit County, but it is there nonetheless. Since this infestation has been moving south and a bit west each summer, I’d expect Park and Lake counties to really take a big hit next year.
If you enjoy this photo and would like a copy to hang on your wall, feel free to order one.
