Sometimes in the mountains it seems like you can almost reach out and touch the change of the seasons. This picture of Saint Malo chapel was taken along the Peak to Peak Highway, one of the most scenic drives in Colorado. This day was clear and cold and you could literally see winter creeping down the imposing Mount Meeker (in the background) towards St. Malo and on down into the foothills.

It doesn’t matter what season you drive in, St. Malo Church is always a photogenic attraction. Pope John Paul II visited St. Malo in 1993 during World Youth Day, and bestowed a special blessing on the chapel. Recently, the St. Malo Conference Center was severely damaged in a devastating fire, but the chapel was spared.
