Didn’t do much yesterday – just chilled. Decided to ride back to The Grand Mesa National Forest without the camper attached. The Grand Mesa, a 10,000 foot mesa, is the largest flattop mountain in the world. There are over 300 alpine lakes throughout the mesa. Leaves had turned more, we were able to stop at pullovers and take pictures and ride down to the Forest Service Campgrounds and the dispersed camping and check them out. Hoped to see animals – just two deer and open range cows. If a pictures speak a thousand words, then I wonder how many words these pictures will speak. I wish I could send you the smell and sounds of the alpine forest.

The alpine sky coming home.

Last picture – my lunch chips – the bag at high altitude. I think they would have popped if we had gone another 1,000 feet!
