Beautiful female Ruby-throated hummers were frequent visitors at our Junction Creek campsite.
But our most unusual visitor was a Rufous Hummingbird, the first we've ever seen. He was a beautiful cinnamon color with a brilliant orange throat - truly spectacular - but a mean little cuss!
The Black-chinned Hummingbird has a brilliant violet-purple throat band that glistens in the sun.

One of our favorite Colorado activities is to travel the 4-wheel-drive high mountain passes throughout the state. The Silverton - Lake Como Trail offers spectacular, rugged scenery and numerous old mining sites.
A typical scene from the Colorado back country.
I can assure you that the air is THIN up here!
