Had the chance to sneak up to the hills with a good friend this past weekend to ride the Georgetown Loop and enjoy the Fall colors. We rode the Loop during a cool Friday morning, after making a stop at Cabin Creek Brewery. Saturday, before heading back down to Denver, I stopped in Silver Plume for a quick stroll along the old grade of the Argentine Central to enjoy the Fall Colors. As I was taking in the Fall colors, noticed that it snowed the night before, with that fresh white stuff around 10k ft… A much relaxing weekend.

First train ride of the day on the Georgetown Loop. Cool temps and fall colors.

Morning light on #111 as it crosses over the Devels Gate High bridge.
