For instance, there was fog this morning and then the sun came out and 2 hours later it was hailing. The mountains can be shining in the sun and all of a sudden you can barely see them at all.

I would love to bike through Boreas Pass when the Aspens are glowing. Guess I'll have to wait until next year. We're heading home next week. Your husband must be very fit. I saw some people riding bikes up to Montezuma the other day and that didn't look easy at all. Kudos to your husband.
