A temperature inversion has created a layer of fog that is clinging to the ground this morning. The sun is slowly burning it away, and the current edge of the fog layer is about a mile west of Leyden. Here, the Zephyr emerges from the fog in a somewhat eerie looking scene.

A typical pair of units brings up the tail end of the BNSF's eastbound Provo-Denver. Indeed, three units on the point and a pair of the rear is by far the most common configuration for BNSF manifests on the Moffat, whether running east or west. The tracks are on a high point here with CO-72 on the opposite side and the gully on this side.
