With Kat in the driver seat (and back in Colorado) we decided to explore a bit of Colorado. Kat doesn't especially like steep cliff lined roads unless she's driving. The roads to Durango have mountain passes like the passes surrounding Silverton.
We did a loop taking in Wolf Creek ski area, Pagosa Springs, Durango, Ouray, Gunison and back to Salida. One of the trip highlights was spending time and exploring Durango with our friends Pam and Tom.
We had a beautiful afternoon for a tour. Elk backstraps headlined an evening feast at Pam and Tom's. The following morning we headed out toward Purgatory, now called Durango Mountain Resort by tourists and the resort owners.
Tom and I had a great day skiing Purgatory while Kat and Pam decided to try the Nordic trails nearby.
Kat found an icy spot and had a hard spill. She's currently nursing a sore knee. Today we did therapy at the hot springs pool in Salida.
We have a few more days of playing in Salida before heading westward. Snow is predicted for tonight and I'm watching the clouds gather as I write this. Powder tomorrow.
