Animas River

We had a great ride on the Durango & Silverton Railroad. Lots of snow melt and some whitewater rapids that were off the scale. Several avalanches have occurred near train lines this Spring. We stopped for a couple hours in Silverton for quick bite to eat and shop. Silverton, CO reminded us of our recent inner passage cruise that stopped in Skagway, Alaska.

The Silverton to Durango narrow gauge railway cuts through the mountains in Colorado, giving a great view of the forest and river.
Great place to go tubing and rafting for free! Plenty of parking. Bike path also.
