Some shots of the mountains after leaving Mesa Verde. We spent a night at a hotel in Montrose before heading off to the Black Canyon of the Gunnison the next morning.
We got to the Black Canyon around 11 am on August 21st. This place is awesome. In some parts of the canyon the walls are almost vertical.
At this point the canyon is only about 30 yards wide at the bottom.
At its deepest the canyon is almost twice the height of the Empire State Building.
It was hot.

Also, inspired by a couple I saw doing the same, I did the necessary activity pamphlet to become a Junior Ranger and learned a lot in the process.

This looks incredible!
