Last morning in Moab - quick mountain bike ride from the camp ground, and then we were on our way! We were headed east & our friends were headed west
Colorado
Lots of beauty in CO
Bolts just napped, on my footstool!
I 70 followed the Colorado river (nice bike paths along most of it too)
Beautiful day, so we saw a lot of rafters
and even some jet skiers (kinda odd on a river...)
dark clouds - storm ahead :(
we passed by a number of ski resorts. Some were closed, some were still open
Our first (and only) traffic issue of our trip
Not sure why I 70 was closed (both directions), but it sure made an interesting trip in Big Blue - driving up this 2 lane highway, with sheer drop offs, windy road, no guardrail...
More interesting drive though - this ski resort was jamming!
and of course it started to snow!
Loveland Pass~11,991 altitude! Big Blue was in the sky!
We finally made it down (detour took us an extra hour). We were way up there - crazy!
CO is full of quaint towns - wish we could stop at them all!
Our stop for the night Golden, CO More ominous clouds awaited us
There was a nice walking path - so Bolts got some exercise
The path went up a big hill, so we could look out over the campground
Big biker bar across the street - music was LOUD. Fortunately, it stopped pretty early.
Crazy Tstorms all night long!
