Wow! Thank you for sharing! Colorado is so beautiful...your mountains dwarf those of Washington state. One of these days I'll join you on the trails too! We could all do a CO trip sometime after Moab one of these years, lol. I'd do it.
Colorado's especially beautiful right now. We've been getting a LOT of rain in the last few month. A number of 4x4 roads have been nearly washed away, making the drives even more interesting.
