The best winter mornings in Colorado are the ones that have a crystal clear blue sky the the day after several inches of fresh snow fell. Such was the case on this February morning as the westbound Zephyr, running about 30 minutes late, rounds Big Ten Curve. You can clearly see the hoppers filled with concrete and dirt on the inside of the curve, now having served as a wind break for over 50 years.
