It might only be the middle of autumn, but winter is creeping up faster than we realize. This coming January 17th to 21th, 2018, myself along with Alan Ernst of Aurum Lodge, are again running our Winter Mountain Magic Photography Tour. This is a small group tour and space is limited to only 6 (six) participants, and it is filling up fast, as we presently have one space left; so don’t dwell on it too long or this opportunity will pass you by. To find more information on this tour check out our Winter Mountain Magic Photography Tour page or go to the photo tours page at Aurum Lodge. Here are a few images taken from places that we may visit this upcoming tour. Make sure you don’t hibernate this coming winter. – Leslie
