Glenwood Canyon Resort
It’s on the side of a hill; entrance at the top, Colorado River at the bottom. We’re parked on the mid level where the bigger rigs park. There is a lower level for camping too. What could be finer than pitching your tent next to the fire ring, then falling asleep to the background sound of the river gently flowing past your head.
Parting shot
One more Ridgway picture. Other streams are too fast and muddy to fish this time of year. This section of the Uncompahgre runs clear and clean. This water comes right from the bottom of the dam upstream. No messy snowmelt runoff here.
Glenwood springs
High country springtime weather. High thirties at night with a forty degree swing to daytime highs. Ridgway was our decompression from the stress of southern California. Mild weather. Minimal people. Knockout scenery. A soak at Orvis Hot Springs. A walk up to the yurt. Side by side massages. Another soak. It worked. We’re ready to go again. Now we’re on to Glenwood Springs. We’ll do the Aspen Center for Physics job mostly remote from here even though we’re within fifty miles of them. I’ll probably drive in for a live exit conference on Friday.
