Colorado Trip Pictures

Here's a sight you don't see everyday: A herd of 300-400 sheep being moved down the road. Stops traffic and everything. This actually happened to me a second time on Highway 50 near Olathe, when I was driving back to Grand Junction for my flight. Another enormous herd of sheep crossed the highway, which stopped traffic in both directions!


In Ouray, we went to the "Ice Park," which are waterfalls called Box Canyon Falls in the summer and when the waterfalls freeze in the winter, it becomes an ice-climbing park. It is popular for mountain climbers to climb the frozen ice.















Rocky Mountain Bighorn Sheep near Ouray, Colorado. Must be a herd of ewes and yearlings because the horns aren't real big.
