Abandoned Mines and Mountains

 Gilman County abandoned mining town




 Eagle Mine


Scenes on our way to Vail.
Where we missed a turn and wound up in Minturn.
Mountains and valleys and mines oh my.
You never know what you'll see when you turn a corner.
And its almost always beautiful!

Absolutely amazing! I am wondering-do you take these from the car or do you always stop and get out to take them? I am the worst at realizing photo opportunities.

Beautiful photos. The abandoned mines make me sad, but all I have to do is look at the mountains and I am happy again.

It depends Gale. If there are pulloffs and we can - DH will stop and I'll get the photo, mostly though I'm taking them on the fly out of the side and front window. I do miss alot because its hard to pan with the sideview mirror - that has got to go LOL!!
