kat...yep...I have ridden over the "Million Dollar Highway"..as they called that road when it was new...the only thing I regret is never taking the train...the narrow gauge railway to Ouray...maybe someday..(I assume it still runs...great tourist attraction)

but for REAL fun...have you ever taken the back road out of Central City down to I-70 near Georgetown? The locals call it the "Oh My God Road"...and there is a wonderful old cemetary back up there behind Central City...with those quaint tombstones full of maudlin inscriptions..
