John's Comments
Taking this two lane road thru the middle of Colorado I was expecting many ups and downs, however the road was quite good and the scenery again was excellent. Several sites to see along the way, allowed for an easy drive. In two specific spots you had just a great view of the Rockies south of Hwy 491, and another when crossing the Blue Mesa reservoir on Hwy 50 that was quite interesting.


John`s Recollections
A scenic drive west to east thru the Rocky mountains. Two lane traffic in most locations slowed the drive, but also did the terrific scenery along the way. Must say that I was expecting to be much closer to the mountain peaks, but the roads followed valleys or breaks in the mountain ranges so the height was not as expected. There were several locations where we stopped just to spend more time ( taking pictures also ) to experience the majestic Rocky mountain ranges.
