La Plata Canyon

Today Jim and I drove through part of La Plata Canyon in Hesperus. Beautiful and cool and very green--especially considering that nearby Mancos is as dry as a bone from lack of rain. The Canyon is a short drive from my house. I'm so lucky to live in Colorful Colorado!


This cascade is more impressive than it seems in the picture; the water rushes down that narrow passage with a deafening roar.
