up Independence Pass to an elevation of 12095 feet above sea level on State Route 82 the highest paved mountain pass in Colorado with some of the finest alpine views. Located on the Continental Divide (which divides the watersheds that flow downward to the Pacific and Atlantic Oceans) the road then goes downhill all the way to Aspen What a twisty curvy road hope you enjoy the ride to the top of the world!

Wow, what majesty in the view before us. You sure know where to stop to capture the scene, Diane. This spot shows a lot of what is around us and in front of us and it is awesome.

If practice makes perfect and nobody is perfect, then why practice?
The view and the sky are too die for Diane. If I don't get the brakes fixed, I might be getting close.

Cameras are like people--sometimes they lose focus.
Can smell the trees and the fresh air in these beautiful mountains. What a beautiful mountainscape Diane! Mich

The trees are helpful in this wonderful post to determine the size of the landscape. It's figuratively and almost literally a breathtaking scenery Diane. Thanks for the ride!

Try to change what you can't accept, but accept what you can't change. Please CLICK HERE to see my journal!
I have driven Independence Pass three times, six times if you count going and coming, and when I got to the part that is a sharp curve that goes down to one lane, and a drop-off very close, I think my palms were wringing wet! I wonder if you had that experience, too. Absolutely a gorgeous shot, Diane. This shot really brings back memories.

If I could tell the story in words, I wouldn't need to lug around a camera. ~Lewis Hine The Earth without art is just 'eh'.
Good capture and excellent littl narrative, I had forgotton what the Continental Divide actually was!
Thanks!

The most precious jewel you'll ever have around your neck are the arms of your children♥
This is so well done, I wish I had such beautiful scenery like this where I live.

I like the sharpness of this shot, and the clouds and mountains are stunning. Great capture.

I shut my eyes in order to see.
Really high elevation. This place must be covered by snow in the winter. Nice capture, Diane.
