Coming home to Durango through the mountains

 

Mile marker 62 from the place it starts/ends - perhaps in Cortez. We've finally hit the mountains!

Hesperus has a ski area...but no idea if they are in business. The snowpack has been pretty bad for a couple of years, I'm told.

Yes, limitations of taking photos through the windshield, or sometimes the side windows. This turn leads to where much of the more modern side of Durango is located, including the medical center "Common Spirit/Mercy Hospital," where my pulmonologist's office is.

A left turn here takes me into the old town of Durango.

And home sweet home, the Welcome to Durango sign!
