From about mid-Spring Creek Basin looking northwest not long before sunset Friday evening. You know, the day we were supposed to get snow.
The passing snow squalls were “this side” (eastish) of Utah’s La Sal Mountains.
Later, very just most immediately before sunset shuttered the light on the rimrocks above Spring Creek canyon, the snow had passed, but the light was still gorgeous.
I was hoping sunset would light up those clouds like it did the previous night, when I was driving and had no camera to hand but my phone.
The cloud/sunset light show never really materialized (some subtle color), but THIS color is always gorgeous and rewarding! (Some snow ON us would have been greatly appreciated.)
Because I’ve referenced it, and because it deserves to be seen, this was the light show Thursday night from U.S. Highway 491 heading north from Cortez, Colorado:
The best camera is the one in your hand. The best light is that in front of you, wherever you are. 🙂

Very beautiful! Hope more snow is on the way!
I’m replying late, but we DID get moisture … in the form of rain. Ha! Ready for more snow!
🤞🙏. Gorgeous photos. Praying for snow.
Always! And hope you get moisture, too!
Wow, TJ. Just wow. Stunning photos of the squalls (clouds having temper tantrums!), the late evening scenery, and the glorious sunset. Wish we had been with you during every one of those moments! But your photos will do nicely. Thank you!
How come we can never really anticipate the sky exploding into that kind of glory!? Ha – hard enough to forecast rain/snow!
WOW! Beautiful!
Right?! I couldn’t believe it! Absolutely glorious.
Wow, these shots are GREAT!! Thanks so much for posting them!
Pretty cool, right? Mustangs aren’t the only magic in our neck of the woods. 🙂
