Wolf Creek Pass from Cortez to South Fork


Wolf Creek Pass is over 10,000 feet in elevation. We had stayed an extra night in Cortez waiting for it to quit snowing in the pass. It was beautiful. You could see snow mobile tracks everywhere.





This is a "snow shed" that is over the road to prevent snow from blocking the highway. If you click on the picture, you can see water running off of the roof.
