Now this is a grand entrance gate!
The upper tributary of the Rio Grande
River along Route 160.
The lighter green is the blooming
aspen. Do you see my cabin
in the lower left corner?
Only kidding.
An old mining shaft along
Route 149.
A foot bridge over the
Rio Grande River.
First glimpse of the
Continental Divide.
Dry valley at the foot of the
Continental Divide.
Close to the head waters
of the Rio Grande River.
Spring Creek Pass.
Elevation is 10,898 feet
with grapple falling!
Slumgullion Summit
at 11,530 feet.
The San Juan Mountains.
I took 53 pictures on this
eight hour drive, and
choosing the best photos
has been very difficult.
Toward evening we saw
a couple of elk in the
lower pasture.
Another lovely scene along
the way. As my friend in the
church office says, Colorado
is truly God's country!
We close our journey with
three deer. Truly an incredible
drive. Thanks, Bill!
