West - Day Four - June 26, 2005



Back on Route 50, I then headed to Black Canyon of the Gunnison NP, an amazingly deep canyon resulting from uplift and erosion of volcanic ash way back when. The sound of the raging river at the bottom was louder than one would expect. Who knew this was there. At this point, it was 5 pm and I had planned to reach Colorado Springs by the end of the day. Given that it was 5 hours away, I changed my plans and drove to Salida (2 hours away) where I stayed for the night.
Drove a total of 375 miles today including going up over the Continental Divide at 11, 312 feet.
