A beautiful time of year in the mountains of Taos Ski Valley.

If I didn't have a calendar or know it was Labor Day Weekend, how would I know it was Fall?

I would take note of the fireweed. Fireweed are the long stalked bright pink flowers that light up Taos Ski Valley in the summer. Their brilliance greets me and brings a smile to my face. I was first introduced to fireweed on a trip to Alaska. They bloom from bottom to top. You can see in this photo, some pods waiting above the flowers that have already blossomed. In late summer and early fall, the blossoms fall off leaving long twig-like arms. Then, you see what looks like cotton or cobwebs among the twigs. Like dandelions, the fireweed seeds drift through the air. In Alaska, this is the sign that winter is about 6 weeks away.
