Museum Days In Dubois

Interesting display of crafts etc.  Highlight for me is the cowboy stew and fry bread.  Picked up a nice spear point/knife blade produced by Ton Lucas.  Tom began making these arrow points, blades in 1957 at the age of 8.

Moon Over Denver (one of the largest I’ve ever seen)

 

 

 

Hot Air Balloon At Chatfield State Park (where we stayed)

 

We took a drive to the top of Mt. Evans.  This road actually extends to 14,170 ft about 100 ft. below the peak elevation of 14,264 ft.  Encountered hail, snow and rain on the way up.  Not sure what the temp was but the rain drops froze on the windshield.

 

On the trip down only about 100 ft. below the parking area at top we encounter a group of Big Horn sheep.  Seems a bit strange that these sheep prefer the sparse vegetation and cold temps at the very top of the tallest mountain in Colorado to what would seem to be much better digs lower down.
