When we lived in Denver we used to go up there a couple times a year to take Red Cone Pass from Fairplay over to Brekenridge, it's a
beautiful drive.
That's Red Cone Pass, the peak is 12,801 ft.
And here is what you face after that first descent of Red Cone
I believe that picture is the south side of Red cone. The north side is one way down, too steep to climb back up. Here is a video from a couple of years ago on ATVs Red Cone Video - RubiranchExplorer

If you look in the background you can see another trail that makes a right hand turn andheads up (out of view);
Radical Hill.:W:B
We love this ride. After Radical Hill you drop into the Wild Irishman and then through Saints John and then into Montezuma, what a great ride. - rvndogsExplorer

Boondocking in British Columbia on way to Alaska
How long were you camping in Alaska? Love those photos!
We were in Alaska for 3 1/2 months. Loved every minute of it and want to go back.

How wonderful to be able to visit that state for so long! In My Dreams!!! So what time of year did you go? It looked pretty warm from your photo. Also, what were the temps then? - DenverDanExplorerHere are some pics from some mid April boondocking near Cottonwood Lake, Colorado

It got down to 3 degrees F the first night. Heaters rock!
