For this drive we opted for the slightly-longer-but-much-easier-on-the-newly-repaired-car path from Durango to Boulder. This way only had one major mountain pass whereas the other option had three and was the path on which the car had popped its coolant system on several days earlier.
I understand that heading through the mountains north of Durango is the prettier drive, but we headed to the east and then north, we got to drive by the Sangre de Cristo mountains, we met a nice chipmunk, drove over Wolf's Creek Pass, and we saw an awesome sunset!
That sunset was wild! In the pic on the right it looks flat, and it was, but if you look at the big version of the shot you'll see the Sangre de Cristo's looming out there on the horizon.
Ho hum just another waterfall here at the top of the Wolf Creek mountain pass.
A bunch of Elk, presumably this is a ranch and they're not just hanging out, but who knows.
He didn't seem rabid or anything, but he was crazy -- he was walking right up to me and practically taking stuff out of my hand (dumb I know, yeah yeah).
