The following panoramic pictures I took during my October 2003 trip to Colorado.

This is the view one gets starting down Kenosha Pass, into the South Park, on Rt. 285. As you can see, there are some flat spots within the Rockies.

This is the view, looking south, or east, towards South Park, from the top of Boreas Pass. Boreas Pass seperates the Como/South Park area from the Breckenridge/Dillon/Frisco area.

This is a view, out the windshield, heading down the north side of Boreas Pass, into Breckenridge. Note the rocks in the road. Looks can be deciving, but this would be a steep descent in a rental car. This shot was taken not far from the summit of the pass. Note the drop off to the left side of the road. Its not uncommon for a vehicle to go over the side, at least once a season, with fatalities, of course.

Commercial block within downtown Georgetown. I-70 is on the hillside, at the end of the street.

View of the upper portion of the Georgetown Valley, taken from the scenic overlook, off of I-70, eastbound. Georgetown itself if out of view, in the valley, hidden by I-70, in the center-left portion of the picture. Guenellas pass is to the right side of the picture.

Another view, from the same spot as the picture, above, at the top of Freemont Pass. The Climax Mine is on the left side of the picture.

The location for this shot is along the Midland Rd., approaching the end of pavement, headed toward Hagerman Pass, on the Continental Divide. Note the colorful aspen in the foreground. On the hillside, to the left side of the picture, can be seen a few rock outcroppings. This may be the former Hell Gate area, along the former Colorado Midland Railroad right-of-way.

Along the Vindicator Valley Trail, outside of Victor. Several old gold mines are visible. Victor is behind the hill on the right.
