Tucked away in the Southwest corner of Colorado, the San Juans are truly a sight to see. High elevations, large snow capped peaks, and an abundance of wildflowers in the summer. It's known as the 'Switzerland of America' for a reason, and is the perfect place for an intimate mountain elopement.

The day began mid-afternoon for Amber, Austin & I when we met at Champions Gulch. While winter conditions were still very much present, we were met with three-feet deep snow drifts leading down to the riverbed. After a few steps, and the snow only getting deeper, we pulled an audible and went to a secondary location, which turned out to be absolutely perfect.
