Colorado Forest

This image was captured in Colorado near the San Juan Mountains. The San Juans are home to some of the highest and most jagged summits in the continental United States. The area is highly mineralized and figured in the gold and silver mining industry of early Colorado.

Yellowstone National Park

The most common tree in Yellowstone National Park is the lodgepole pine, pictured above, which covers roughly 80% of the park. Yellowstone encompasses 3,472 square miles, meaning that it's larger than Rhode Island and Delaware combined. It is also home to over 500 active geysers.
