Western Slope Colorado

The Western Slope refers to the west side of the Continental Divide.  The snow melt of the Rocky Mountains merges into a few rivers and through desert canyons.  It is hard to believe this is still Colorado, but it is.  But, Utah is not far away! 

Autumn is a wonderful time to 
hike the high desert - Blue, Blue Sky!!

Classic vistas of the desert 
lone tree against bluff 

 

The dimensions of desert towers are not given justice by any camera

Desert wash are the sidewalks
of the desert  

No straight roads

Welcome shadows!

Nap time! 

Finders Keepers!
