Mountain Home Entryway.
Winters are our long season, at elevation 8,600 ft in the mountains of Colorado. With the low sun angle leaving a treacherous icy path to our home, we had to come up with an alternative way to approach our front door.
The solution was to create a welcoming entry through an ancient aspen grove, shady in the summer but open to the warming rays of the sun in December and January.
Finnegan was a great helper in the heavy lifting, as we double-teamed the slate slabs across the drainage channel along the road. It was my goal to get this complete before the snow flies this year, and given the 34℉ temperature this morning--August 19, summer yet--that could be sooner rather than later.
