I hope he has hats and t-shirts ready too!
YEAH!! Birthday cake for everyone!!!
I’m sure they’re more where those came from … although it’d be kind of cool to see a new design which gives a nod to the old building somehow.
More visible progress, they’ve removed the big fence and protective walkway & have now have most of the concrete work completed on the front of the building. This was taken yesterday afternoon, look like they’re now tackling the siding on the front of the building. Apparently, they’re going to paint a white “Baked In Telluride” … so it should look very good:

The shot below was taken on 5/8 … and you can see that Bridal Veil is pretty much still frozen (probably flowing a little bit) & didn’t appear to have changed much on a short hike I took up Tomboy road yesterday. Bluegrass really does fall on the cusp of after having “turned the corner” re: weather. It’s generally very schizophrenic throughout May and early June (I recall 3 feet of snow on June 6 about 6-8 years ago).

That’s Ingram Falls in your picture. You can’t see Bridal Veil from down canyon as it’s off to the right in that picture. :flower

Tom, they’re actually both there (forgot about Ingram). I took a hike up Tomboy road a decent stretch - just before it switches back to the west … it’s one of the few ‘trails’ which are dry at this time of year for any duration. I found a random shot which you can compare using the switchbacks as a guide to see where it’s frozen over:
WOOO HOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!! :sunshine
That is Bridal Veil from a different perspective than you’re used to. And don’t forget, it looks WAY different in the winter. You can see both in the non-winter photo.
Tom, Bridal Veil is four inches in from the right. Took me a few also! :thumbsup
