This is one of my favorite spots in Colorado to watch both sunset and sunrise. During the peak summer wild flower season, the hills light up with a collection of brilliant colored mountain wild flowers. On this particular day, as the day was fading into evening, a storm passed through and caught the Lizard Head Wilderness just east of Mt Wilson by surprise. One a matter of minutes later, out came a breathtaking rainbow just as the warm colors of sunset made their final appearance to the west.
