Durango, to Silverton, to
Ouray, to Telluride Sky Resort and Village...
Durango, CO
the road to Silverton is two lane, no side guard rails and a 10,000 foot canyon over the edge, its 26 miles and takes 45 - 60 minutes to drive. You DO NOT speed.
There were times I was wishing I could sit in Kenneth's lap, I just wanted to be away from the edge of the drop off, But SOOOO Pretty. The Aspen had turned and the y had received snow at the higher elevations for the previous four days.
ENJOY...

I told Kenneth
"Unless there are elk or something, don't stop"

Elk - check
Bridal Veil Falls is here, at 365' they are the tallest free falling falls in Colorado.

It's a power plant.
I told Kenneth that this is probable the only bear he would see...
