Gunnison River

Black Canyon of the Gunnison is absolutely spectacular and I was so happy to know you could drive to the bottom because it takes super human strength to hike down. The trail drops 1800 feet in one mile! A piece of cake for Chris 🙂

Black Canyon mostly runs East to West so along with its depth, it can be difficult to photograph. The first of Summer is the best time to catch the sun on the Gunnison River.

A River Runs Through It

The Medano River runs from April through August along the sand dunes in Great Sand Dunes National Park and Preserve. We missed seeing the water flowing but these abstract cuts in the sand were a treat to photograph. This image shows the Dunes to the left, the grasslands to the right and the Sangre de Cristo Mountains in the background. What a place. Can’t wait to go back!
