The Beauty of the San Juans
The San Juan County line, in southwestern Colorado, at about 8,800 feet of elevation, just off the appropriately named "San Juan Skyway", north of Durango, at the height of the fall color, and with gorgeous blue skies and puffy white clouds. I couldn't believe my luck.
That's Engineer Mountain (12,968 feet, 3953 meters) at the right of the frame, and Grizzly Peak (13,738 feet, 4187 meters) at the back center. Engineer Mountain has over 1500 feet of vertical prominence, and Grizzly Peak is one of five different Colorado "Thirteeners" (mountains over 13,000 feet) with the same name.
For more from this amazing drive, please check out the others in my "Autumn" set, to the right.
Thanks for stopping by, everyone! I hope all is well with you and yours.
