So begins the worst, busiest, most anxiety-inducing week of the year in Disappointment Valley: third rifle season. Deer and elk are the targets.

The light of the rain

Double rainbow over Spring Creek Basin from Disappointment Valley Road, looking southeast.
Rainbow over Seven’s swale in Spring Creek Basin.
The other end of the above rainbow. … It was INTENSE.
Temple Butte and McKenna Peak in the very last light of the post-storm day.
Glorious. 🙂

Blessed are those who wait for rain

We’re not the most patient lot … but we just might be the most grateful. 🙂
Colorado Highway 141, across the top of the screen, runs across the broad, lower, northern end of Disappointment Valley. Southeast of the rightmost 141 marker and south of the open space in the green blob that is life-giving rain is Spring Creek Basin. The rain has fallen fairly steadily with small breaks since Saturday mid-afternoon.
The world as we know it is SOGGY. And it’s FABULOUS.

The full moon rises over Temple Butte and McKenna Peak on the eastern edge of Spring Creek Basin.
It’s officially autumn. 🙂
