Sunday Drive

Yesterday after church we took a very long (145 miles) and very "mountainous" drive into the Rockies. The scenery was spectacular, the fall colors breathtaking!



This stretch of graveled mountain road was quite an adventure - not for the fainthearted! Some parts were very narrow - room enough for one vehicle - and no guardrails between the road and the canyon below! We weren't sure what this sign meant, but it wasn't very encouraging!










At one point we drove to an elevation so high, that we were higher than the Schilthorn in Switzerland (Schilthorn is the highest point in the Bernese Alps)!




Golden aspens were brilliant against the dark green pine trees.
