There was rain in the forecast for Arizona so we decided to head north to play in the snow instead. We’d planned to stop for a day in Monument Valley on the border of Utah and Arizona but the fog was so thick you couldn’t see anything! So we kept driving and ended up (after a long day in the car) in Telluride.
After 2 days in Telluride, we drove a couple hours east to Pagosa Springs, CO. We skied for a day at Wolf Creek — much less posh and overpriced that Telluride — and spent time at the town’s hot springs.
