    Here's some pics I snapped today as I made the climb out of Denver, over the Rockies, and into Grand Junction today. These were all taken with my Blackberry and, like every other cell phone camera, are less than stellar quality. Also, I forgot that if I zoom at all the picture will be smaller. So some of these will be bigger than others.

    This first pic is just west of Golden, and the final is about 50 miles or so east of Grand Junction.

    It's pretty; I ended up having to take it westbound to I !5 and then down to Beaver to do a triple relay to LA with 1 pallet dropped in Denver, the reason the outside carrier dropped the load.

    I got to the Utah border about dawn. Thanks for posting this, now I see some of what I missed that night, the night Jerry Ford's passing was announced to the world.

    Great pics SC, I luv the scenery west of Denver on I-70. Another fav of mine is going north of flagstaff where the Grand Canyon is. Someday, I will drive the scooter thru those routes.
