Ouray to Durango

Sunny...

...the clouds are rolling in...

...and the rain turned to hail at 10,000'
DURANGO, CO - - Last night, we watched a big black bear raid a dumpster about 30 yards away from our campsite at 1:30am.  We were leaving Ouray this morning anyway, but apparently this omnivore is a regular visitor to the neighborhood.
     After an extra coffee stop to fuel up for the up-and-down, twisty 75 miles to Durango we took off.  It was one of those days when the weather was a bit unsettled.  The sun was nice, even the dark clouds rolling in weren't bad.  But the rain turning into hail which lightly covered the road as we crossed one of three 10,000' or better passes was a bit much.
     So tonight we've opted for a dry spot with a nice sized tv.  We don't always 'rough it.'
