The Summit of Loveland Pass

Everyone knows that the easiest way to get from Denver to the western side of the state is to take Interstate 70 through the Eisenhower tunnel. Of course, I wasn't interested in easy, nor was I in any hurry, so I went over Loveland Pass. Naturally, I had to stop at the summit to get some photos.

U. S. Highway 6 winds around on approach to the summit of Loveland Pass.

Amazing views abound.


Here we are, right on the Continental Divide.


More terrain above timberline.


Reminds me of tundra.


Even in mid-July, there's loads of snow.


A creek forms from the snowmelt.


At this altitude, wildflowers flourish.
