Exploring Colorado National Monument by Car

What a GREAT night's sleep, very quiet, very dark and very chilly - temps dropped down to about 35 degrees.  This morning, we drove the car back down the mountain about ten minutes to view the overlooks we missed coming up with the coach and tried to find those elusive bighorn sheep.  Denis spotted two ewes but I missed them - frustrating.

Much cooler here - needed to dress in layers and long pants


Buds are just starting to bloom at this altitude

Thanks for stopping in.
