Notice the 'snow stick' to the left of the car....  Just to the left of that, up on the ridge, is the visitor center.







Top end of the Fall River Pass road.  From here on down it's two lane asphalt.  I ended up turning the motor off, sitting in neutral and coasting almost the full ride down the west side of the mountain.  Being able listen to the cycle and the road with the motor off for minute after minute was different.




Down in the wide open valley just north of Rand CO
