Durango and Silverton - Driving and Flying Colorado

Today was a beautiful day mixed with both flying and driving.

We drove to Silverton Colorado during our afternoon break from flying.

Cierra and I drove to the work crew's staging area north of Dolores Colorado where Cierra and I got to fly a few times. There is another dog in the crew, her name is Annie Brown, she is a Chesapeake Bay Retriever.

Tomorrow we're moving North from Durango to Telluride.

Cierra, ready to fly.

Up and away. Sometimes passing traffic see's the helicopter while others are so focused on their tunnel vision driving that they don't see us. A few people stopped to visit.

A light dusting of snow.

The view up here is beautiful, I can see for miles.

There are dozens of hiking, biking, motorcycle, and jeep trails in the mountains.
