(more) pics from southwest Colorado

[lytehouse]

I figured I should post a few pics from our latest trip since I got lazy and didn't post any from the previous trip :/ (Mesa Verde) anyway........
We meet up with a couple of members from our sister FZ1 site and rode around the Ouray area, via a few mountain passes along the way.
Cottonwood Pass

Taylor Reservoir

Colorado National Monument (should have adjusted the lighting, but hey, wth?)

it was a fun ride up....the road followed the rim most of the way through

after Friday's rain, we were treated to this:

top of Molas Pass between Ouray & Silverton,CO

Red Mountain - old mining sites

waterfall outside Ouray

Dallas Divide, Ridgeway, CO

And Bridal Veil Falls, Telluride,CO

I do?
Oh yeah, I do have mail! LOL
Thanks Cliff, truth be told, I could have & should have done a little tweaking in Picasa, but I'm getting awfully lazy about that these days.

And if you guys (you or Kenny) are serious, just let me know and I'll do my darnest to accommodate that!

Wow great pics Brenda, I'm jealous of people having that kind of scenary on your doorstep :drool:

If you all, or anyone, pulls this together, I'd love to jump in if you are willing to get west of the divide (nod, yes).

I should have posted the meet up on this site as well...we met a couple of guys from our sister site in Ouray.
I totally forgot you were so close
Maybe we could try to organize something for next year?

Great pics! We are hoping to do a nice long ride next summer and include Colorado. I will hit you up for route suggestions when it gets closer.

Maybe we should think about doing a forum meet up. Kenny, Cliff & MakersTeleMark have expressed interest.....

As am I now.
Kenny and I were supposed to meet up to do the St. Joseph Highway last summer, unfortunately my new bike was "impounded" due to some missing critical bolts but I still wanna do something like this!
