The hills are alive with color in Colorado.
What to watch: We told you all about this year's big blooms, so we had to share photos from Crested Butte, where the annual wildflower festival finished Sunday.
The bottom line: The wildflowers are just as spectacular as the scientists predicted. So get outside and enjoy them.
