Travel to Colorado in 1999

In late October I attended the Geological Society of America's Annual Meeting in Denver, Colorado. After the meeting I took a couple of days to drive around in the state, looking at the sites, collecting rock samples for the teaching collection at BHC and taking pictures. Below you will find the route I took and some of the pictures I took.
