Due to the mild weather I have been able to keep riding my ATV. Here are some photos from my last trip out. (Click on photos to open a larger image.)
"The Giz" on a muddy trail
The road started off muddy due to melting snow. Grand Mesa is in the background.
A bit further up the trail I spied one of the wild horses that live here. Although a bit far off the road for my point-and-shoot camera, I took this photo:
Wild horse on Wild Horse Mesa
This is the 2nd horse I have seen while riding my ATV. Its nice to know they are there.
As I rode further the elevation increased, and I found myself above the snow line and looking at this landscape:

Wild Horse Mesa is the foreground and way in the back is Grand Mesa.
Eventually, as the snow got deeper, I decided to turn around and head for home. Here I am turning around at the top of a hill:
Turning around in the snow
At this point I am about 22 miles up the trail. Shortly after heading back I stopped at this sign post:
De Beque 19 Miles
Once I got home I had to take The Griz to a car wash to clean off all the mud and snow, then home to catch the Giants – Patriots football game. All in all, a pretty good weekend day!
Thats it for now. Thanks for looking in!
