Wednesday Photos, August 10, 2011

On Wednesday, we drove to Ouray, known as the Switzerland of America. We stopped a couple of times to enjoy the view from high passes and to let the brakes cool off. We took a short hike to a small waterfall at one of these stops. We stopped for lunch in Silverton and ate at the same place that we had lunch the day before during our train break.
