Photo Essay: Scenes along Piedra Road

Thursday, June 10

From Target Tree Campground east of Mancos, the crew and I head due east on Route 160, passing through Durango, going all the way to Pagosa Springs.

P1120085-001I’m skipping over those many miles because I don’t want to relive them and I wouldn’t be doing you a favor by writing about them.  Beautiful scenery along the way, of course.  However, I wasn’t able to appreciate it much.

Friday traffic on Route 160 from Durango to Pagosa Springs is nuts. 

There are people who are in a hurry to die, I guess.  The crew and I make it through with our lives and with the Perfect Tow Vehicle and the Best Little Trailer intact.

Thank God.

I check the campgrounds along this route and none of them are right for us.  That’s why I push us further than usual.

At Pagosa Springs, the PTV carries us north on Piedra Road. 

Piedra starts out paved and after a few miles turns to dirt/gravel.

These photos tell the story of the drive to our next camp.  I hope you enjoy them!
