I've been on most of the 10'000 plus peaks in Colorado that are easily accessible. There ain't shite above 11'000 feet but tundra and rocks.

You are spot on. There may be some over 11,000...but damn few. Most are at elevations lower than that.

"Aspen, known as quaking aspen, are Colorado’s only widespread, native, deciduous tree and can be found from 6,500 to 11,500 feet in elevation, particularly on the West Slope."

This is at +/- 11,000' going to Goose Lake in NM. Pretty sure those are Aspen trees.

Jasmine as it is starting to bloom in the spring time. It takes me back to my childhood days growing up in Zachary.

I’m approaching 50 but once I smell Jasmine blooming I am immediately zapped right back into the 80’s

Dammit.....just trying to say how awesome mountain air smells. Sorry I missed my fricking elevation by 1,000'. Damn bean counters!

This is the OT, do better.

My first serious girlfriend’s perfume. I don’t know the name of it but I think about her every time I smell it in public. It’s an odd sensation to be honest.

Came in to post confederate jasmine blooming combined with a control burn fire. Would be a great yankee candle offering lol

My Dad had a produce business for most of his life. In the summers, Mom would make my dad take a few of his kids on his route, to get them out of her hair.

I remember vividly, the smell of the coffee roasting plant near Carrolton St on the way to the French Market.

Whenever I smell coffee roasting, I feel like I am being transported back to the late 60's early 70's. It's magical.

I have to say that fresh air when you wake up after tent camping in Colorado is hard to beat.
