Crossing the Rockies



Today we folded our way across the Rocky Mountains - from the Wasatch Front in Utah, along the craggy canyon of the Colorado River, to the Front Range and a view to the plains on the east side of Colorado. It was a spectacular ride through a landscape of red cliffs glazed with white snow, green pines, frozen pale blue rivers - and we were very grateful for another day of clear skies and clear roads.

Tonight, we lodge with my Carleton College roommate Jenny Fick.

Tomorrow: to Texas!
