The Best for Last

We got the Can Am back from the shop (small problem) so we took on last little outing while in Colorado and it turned out to one of the very best we made.  Toni and I took the ATV over to South Fork and did a 70 mile trip up to the little community of Platoro.

The entire forest going to Platoro was healthy and free of beetle damage!




We were here by around 1:00 and each ate an excellent burger and cherry cobbler with ice cream!

Here is a picture of a charming old couple we met while in Platoro.

Lots of beautiful views!


 

It is hard to read this on your computer but very interesting information.

 

 

This is a little cabin back in the area that can be rented on a dialy basis.


 

Our Can Am ATV average 29 mpg on the 70 mile trip.  We both enjoyed it and are thinking about getting license tags on it and street tires since it is so economical.  Ha.

Here we are back home on Monday.  The weather at home was actually very nice!


The length of this stuff is only 63 feet long and the legal maximum is 65 feet.  Yay, I can add on!
