Images of Colorado

When I visited Utah in 1992, I took a trip to Dinosaur National Monument. Parts of the monument are in Colorado, and I took these two pictures there.

The eight subsequent pictures were taken in December, 2001, during a trip to Black Canyon of the Gunnison, MesaVerde, and Great Sand Dunes.

Dinosaur Monument
The scenery of the monument was quite memorable.

Green River
The Green River flows down into the Colorado River.

Black Canyon of the Gunnison
The canyon has steep walls; it is very narrow.

Rock Spires
The erosion has carved these spires.

Mesa Verde
I visited this cliff dwelling.

Anasazi Cliff Dwelling
This one was harder to reach.

Rockies
The Rockies from the west. You may see some sand dunes in front.

Great Sand Dunes
The dunes rise dramatically, but the mountains are even taller.

Ripples
Dunes have dunes; the ripples in the sand are dunes in miniature.

The Rocky Mountains
The Rockies, when viewed from the plains heading West. When I moved to California, I flew over this.
