Dennis Weaver Memorial Park

Last Dollar Road - Ridgeway State Park - Dennis Weaver Memorial Park, Colorado

Part 2 of our beautiful fall color camping trip to the San Juan's in Western Colorado. Taking off from Ridgeway State Park and ending in Telluride we enjoyed some of the most spectacular colors this year and were showing off their display. We slipped in at a perfect time just before the weather changed drastically. Such a diverse country , from canyons to valleys to glorious mountain views sprinkled with color everywhere you looked.

Last Dollar Road in the Rain

They say that Last Dollar Pass can be impassible when wet even for 4-wheel-drive vehicles. We venture on the trail during a heavy rain to find this nearly true. It was indeed greasy but we managed to make it safely into Ridgeway before dark.

Last Dollar Road Colorado -Telluride

A nice road for Jeeping, but not as fun as the other roads in the area.
