blue mountain green sage

Kandinsky didn't lie. Sometimes when the morning fog is thick enough the mountains turn blue.

Spring thaw is really starting and the sage brush is starting to appear. This is probably the best time of year to walk through the sage. The snow is crusty enough to support your weight. It's too cold for bugs (like ticks- ticks love sage) and you have paths between the brush. Once the snow melts it will be much harder to pick your way through the scrub and cactus.
