Arriving in Southern Colorado on the 1st of October meant that the fall colors were at their peak. We took a day to drive and see the mountains and do some leaf peeping. |
We started with a drive from the San Luis Valley over to Durango and then headed north on the "Million Dollar Highway" |
The "Million Dollar Highway" connects Durango to the "Switzerland of America," Ouray, CO. OOHH, a tree with red leaves! |
Connecting Ouray to Telluride is the "Dallas Divide Highway" |
We arrived into the Telluride area at sunset. Telluride is in that valley in the distance. |
We were lucky to catch the final rays of sunlight as we drove south into the town of Cortez along the Dolores River. |
A PERFECT fall day! |
