Day 19 - Back to Colorado

Today, Dan and I needed a day off, so we took a travel day and drove back to Colorado, to Winter Park. It was 463 miles and took 8-1/2 hours. Along the way we crossed the continental divide three times. We climbed thru some interesting mountain passes, but most of the way was across high, snow-covered desert. We passed the time by scouting locations for nuclear waste repositories. We found lots of good sites, most of central Wyoming would be fine.

Tomorrow, we'll ski our thirteenth resort, Winter Park. We're not sure where we'll ski Saturday, our last day.

Both Dan and I are ready to come home. We think that when we do this again, we'll only ski for two weeks. Maybe the first week we'll stay in one place and ski a few different resorts, then we'll go helicopter skiing for the second week.
