Durango, Telluride, Black Bear pass

These mountains are sooo beautiful! The jeep performed magnificently. This was the lest leg of our trip before we headed home, it was a bittersweet end to the grand adventure.

Driving through alpine scenery

We had some friends meet us in Colorado!

The steep path up the mountain, the CJ-5 was a champ!

The Sangre de Cristos, Colorful Colorado!

High country

We hit the top to see the sun light up the mountains.

Rugged country

Heading down the mountain

The road is amazing, I love it. 

High mountain lake

Mountain wildflowers

Descending "the steppes" 

Down toward Telluride, the trail is rough 

The trail is dangerous

This jeep went down the mountain shortly before us

Yellowstone and Grand Teton

Yellowstone is a photographers playground. The colors there are ridiculous and practically begged me to work with them in HDR. 


Sulfure pool outlet, high concentrations of minerals in the water give it it's various colors

The land is wiped clean in some places by the boiling water from the thermal features and concentrated minerals in the water

The outlet of a thermal feature, the deposits have built up over years and are now large mounds of colorful rock

 This Bison decided to allow vehicles to use the road for a few minutes
