Looks like you had some great weather for photo ops, Jens.
Snow on Bryce...it doesn't get any better.
There is quite a bit of blue in the shadows here...and also in your last few images....perhaps worth revisiting.

I am aware of the blue in the shadows. I usually remove it from all my pictures, religiously. However, when I did that to these images, the resulting neutral gray just didn't look good between the orange and white. So I put it back in, slightly toned down.

It was cold, but not biting cold. I actually saw people snow tenting at the campground and spent the night in the car myself, as I always do when on a photoshoot.

I like it, great color and interesting composition. Not sure but it looks like maybe the DOF was just a bit shy of what it needed to be to get the distant part of the scene sharp.

Love the play of light, and warm versus cool colors. Well done.
