Where in the mountains can you find red or blue snow?

In the alpine regions of Colorado it is not uncommon to find pink snow falling in the mountains. What a surprise to open your door, walk outside and find the ground covered in snow cone. Looks good enough to eat I suppose, though I don’t think I would be the brave soul to try it. \n\nThe pink hue is caused by an algae called “chlamydomonas nivalis”. Locals call it “Watermelon Snow” because it actually has a taste very similar to watermelon. The snow (and the algae) is safe to eat, atleast in reasonable quantities. Some algae can be slightly toxic, and eating too much may result in pink diarrhea. \n\nIt is pretty unbelievable that snow would fall from the sky colored pink, and even more unbelievable that it would be safe to eat and taste like watermelon. An excerpt from a recent Wowozanga article explains some of the scientific reasoning behind this. \n\nThere are actually more than 350 kinds of algae that survive in very cold temperatures. These algae can turn the snow black, brown or yellow (just don’t confuse this with the OTHER yellow snow), too. “Chlamydomonas nivalis” tends to flourish when the weather warms up a little after the darkest, coldest part of winter. It starts out green, then turns pink or reddish as the weather brightens. The cells have a gelatinous sheath that protect them from the strong ultraviolet radiation at high altitudes (at 12,000 feet / 3,7 kilometers on the above photo), and this sheath is what produces the pink color. \n\nAnother pink snow incident recently appeared when certain parts of Russia’s Maritime territory were coated with pink snow. This follows a yellow snowfall last month caused by pollution or possibly volcanic activity. Meteorologists suggest that the pink tint comes from Mongolian sand. To quote Mos News: “Before it arrived in Maritime, the cyclone passed Mongolia, where sand storms had been raging in the desert. The winds of the cyclone embraced dust particles that colored the fallouts,” the experts said.

The blue lines seen on events set on snow, such as the downhill, the slalom, and the snowboard cross, show the best best skiing / riding line. If you go outside those lines all that happens is that you lose the potential for the best speed. However, in some slalom events you will see a broken line. In these events if you miss or straddle a gate, your run will be declared void and you will be eliminated from the event

Skiing all the way. You have way more control being able to use both legs. I've done both and I still say skiing. My favorite resort is by far Jackson Hole. Vail is way too expensive for my taste. Not to mention Jackson Hole has the biggest vertical drop in North America if you like steep.

Blue is the color that reflects off snow in early evening and before dawn. Its a comfort thing. People want that color reflecting off their homes to let their visitors know they are welcome.

Looks like it has already started snowing out there (see web site link in sources below).\nSlopes usually open late November I believe. Couldn't actually find that info on the Web.\nGood luck. Looks a nice resort.

The blue ridge mountains gets their name from the blue halo around the mountains ... particularly in the morning or evening from a distance.  The blue color comes from terpenoids.  Terpenoids are tiny tiny tiny airborne chemical released from coniferous trees.

Vegetation emits in the infrared wavelength.  On false-color infrared mosaics, vegetation appears in red instead of green. The "redness" indicates vegetation density, type and whether growing on dry land or in a swamp. Grasslands appear light red, deciduous trees and croplands appear red, and coniferous forests appear dark red or maroon. Desert areas appear white and urban areas appear bluish green. Lakes, rivers and oceans appear in various shades of blue, dark blue for deep water and light blue for shallow or turbid water

Mount Snow is a great place that is not too challenging yet has a variety of terrain.  Its a big mountain but you are able to ski and see it all.  Killington is a lot bigger but has many trails.  Check out Stratton which is a beautiful mountain, Okemo, Smugglers Notch (challenging terrain).  Those are in Vermont.  New Hampshire and Maine also have great big mountain skiing.
