Day two of Durango

We started our day out with a ride on the Durango to Silverton railway. Many times the train is right on the edge of the cliffs. The pictures don't really do it justice.


The trip was actually to Cascade Canyon about 25 miles from Durango. The trip to Silverton is not open yet and we think it's because of snow.

Here are some pics from the train.











The trip was well worth the money and it was a beautiful day. The pulled pork sandwich that they sold was very good.

The train left at 9:30 a.m. and got back at 2:30 p.m. so we decided to take a drive to see Mesa Verda cliff dwellings

32 years ago we were here and walked all the way down into the dwellings and into a kiva. If you look closely at the next picture you can see a ladder sticking out of the kiva. Actually looks like two sticks.

This was probably the rainest day on the trip so far. Let's go right here Nice campsite right on the Arkansas River. We have mayflies here in fact this is only two of thousands that were on the camper. We were able to go for a bike ride on an extremely nice trail that crosses some water Met this family that didn't say much that was also on the bike trail. You can see the rain coming. On our way back to the car it started raining hard and we look to the right and there was a shelter so we stayed there for about 15 minutes until it stopped. The rain glistened through the pines We have been here before and wanted to climb Pinnacle mountain and the weather was not good to do that so we'll have to come back.
