One of the lakes at Twin Lakes... |
More adventures in Colorado. We went to possibly the smallest Walmart ever in Gunnison. Continued on to Salida which tested Betsey out as we had to go over an 11, 312 foot pass called Monarch Pass. Lots of stopping to let her cool down. Several people stopped to see if we were ok which was really nice. As always, we had plenty of water on board for her, and with plenty of rest, she made it up the Monarch Pass. Lots of snow and the ski field looked impressive.

We continued on from Salida up north through Buena Vista and camped for the night next to one of the lakes at Twin Lakes. We saw lots of deer on the drive today, but we were not sure if they were wild or not as they were in paddocks. All up about 40, so that beats the last daily total! Also, we saw some mountain sheep with big horns. We assumed they were native sheep because of the horns, but who knows!
