Independence Pass

My oh My! Could not believe it! Ice! Snow. I had only put a really warm jacket in at the last minute as it had been so warm in Gunnison. BUT it was beautiful. There really is a sense here that you have to do it NOW as the weather will not wait for you and it won't be long before the pass is closed. Mmmm I wonder why it is called Independence - a truly amazing piece of engineering. How did they do it?

Oh my goodness found being at 12,000 ft really incredible... thought I had adjusted to altitude but it really messes with your head and body! Peru here we come!
