We stayed in our big trailer, Petunia (which would end up being her final outing but more on that later), at Ridgway State Park. This was our site in the campground above the Uncompahgre River:
Rob brought his portable smoker so he tortured the campground with the delectable smell of smoked meats while we enjoyed some evening cocktails.
We went into the tiny town of Sawpit Colorado and picked up some lunch from the Sawpit Mercantile and had a picnic and a nice walk at Down Valley Park along the San Miguel River.
Afterwards we decided to go explore a road that looked interesting on the map and discovered an amazing alpine lake, Woods Lake. There is a beautiful trail that follows the lake shore and then climbs into lovely aspen forests which were just beginning to change to their golden splendor.
