Description
'Path through the Monument Plants', a fine art landscape and nature photograph by Lynn Cyrus / Cascade Colors. I've spent the past few days reminiscing over how fortunate I've been over the years to see much unspoiled wilderness during my time in Colorado - particularly since in recent years recreational use in these lands has skyrocketed and damage is beginning to occur. This is an older image that I hadn't yet uploaded, and I think it deserves to be part of this portfolio. What makes this image extra special is the fact that these lovely monument plants only flower once in their lifetime, after many years of putting up only leaves. Once fully mature, each plant puts out hundreds of flowers on a tall stalk, and then the plant dies. It was almost magical walking along this hiking trail one summer over a decade ago. This wilderness is north of Crested Butte, in a beautiful stretch of the Rocky Mountains.
