We took the million dollar highway from Ouray to Silverton. This was truly one of the most spectacular drives. The road was narrow, windy and followed the deep gorge without a guardrail. Of course, I did not drive or we all would have been rushed back through box canyon in surging river. I could barely even look out my window it was so terrifying to me (hence the lack of pictures).

Once we got to Silverton, the sun began to peep out and granted us this beautiful rainbow just as we were leaving town. ahhhh..
