On the road to South Fork from Durango we saw Chimney Rock. What a view.
This is the road over Wolf Creek Pass, Colorado. The pass is 10,550 feet. Our Holiday Rambler did so well. We are very pleased with how it goes over the high passes and down the other side, where Dixie hangs on with white knuckles! But the roads are good and lots of turn outs for the faster cars to pass us.
We had to go through this tunnel to get to the other side of Wolf Creek Pass. It was a nice big tunnel.
When we got to South Fork, CO we stayed at the South Fork RV Park right on Hwy 160. Our space was overlooking the Rio Grande River. It was a beautiful sight. The weather was sunny and cool, but every day it rained in the late afternoon. A couple of days it rained most of the night, but by morning would be clear blue skys. We really liked this park and would go back there again. The people were very friendly. We met a man who whittles walking sticks. I wish I would have taken some pictures of the walking sticks he had made. They were amazing. He make them out of the Aspen wood that is prevelent in the area. Most of the RVers were from Texas and were here to get out of the heat and humidity.
On the way to South Fork we had to buy Diesel. We paid $4.70 a gallon. Still better than CA which when we left was over $5.00 per gallon.
