Rivers of gold and green - a photo on Flickriver

Rivers of gold and green

            Bands of brilliant aspen intermixed with spires of somber green spruce and fir run down the ridges and valleys of the Ruby Range in south central Colorado. The two prominent peaks are Mount Owen (l,13,070 ft/ 3984 m) and Ruby Peak (r, 12,630/ 3850 m).

The Ruby Range is composed of ancient marine sediments (66 to 100 million year old Mancos shale, note the banded rock on Mt Owen), with injections of magma from around 30 million years ago, which created numerous dikes. One such dike can be seen in the central foreground running from Ruby Peak towards the viewpoint from which this photo was taken.
