Winter views in South Park

Yesterday, my Dad joined me for a drive down to my friends place above Sapinero, CO. His shop, Proffitt’s Resurrection Land Cruisers is located in Orchard City, just outside of Delta. Coming from Denver, it helps with the drive getting the runner to Jeremiah and Chandra’s place above Sapinero.

After topping off the tank in Poncha Springs, we started the drive over Monarch Pass (11,312ft), not too long after coming upon a line of stopped vehicles. Turned out an avalanche had just closed the pass. So, Dad and I turned around, had lunch in a balmy 39deg Salida then headed back home.

I broke off from driving back with Dad in South Park, turning off on the road to Weston Pass. Winter weather was setting in so I didn’t get many pics, but it sure felt good to get the 4runner out. First time since Slee Off Road installed the winch.

The images I did get from yesterdays outing.

Finally feeling like Winter. Views from Weston Pass road.

Felt good to get the 4runner out for a drive.
