Rockies

5:50AM, wake up!

This morning packing things is a little longer, we have to fold up the sleeping bags, make sure everything fits into our luggages. We manage to leave the campground at around 6:30.

In the brochures the old man gave us yesterday, we find some information about Mesa Verde Natl Park, and it looks interesting. So even if we have more than 400 miles to go back to Denver, we decide to give it a look.

Those villages were build a thousand years ago, and abandoned around 1200AD by the Ancestral Puebloans.

Then the long road begins, we arrive in Denver at around 8PM after crossing many passes above 11,000 feet. We didn’t choose the shortest road, but tried to compromise between wilderness and not too long roads.

Map of the day

We can’t wait for our next trip!

Fabulous, Magnificent, Splendid, Gorgeous… we could go on forever with this kind of words, it will still be not enough to give justice to those landscapes in the Wild Wild West! But it is quite exhausting too!

The END!!! (for now ;))
