Colorado Days 3 and 4

Day 3


Day 3 was scary. We drove for hours up an extremely bumpy, hilly, dangerous, and rocky cliff-side trail to St. Elmo, a ghost town in the mountains, with our little Jeep-car thingy, an ATV, and a motorcycle. Extremely dangerous. 

St. Elmo was hot. Very hot. Very very hot. Very very very hot. We ate sandwiches in the shade of an abandoned shop and watched people feed chipmunks. And we decided that feeding chipmunks sounded like a lot of fun and bought a bunch of sunflower seeds to feed them with. I think they have learned not to be afraid of humans (because we feed them), because I have never been that close to a chipmunk before.

Day 4

We went white water rafting on Day 4! :) We got to swim da rapids. :D


We also went to the Black Canyon in Gunnison. Really, it's just some black cliffs, but they were pretty and we hiked to the bottom and across. At the bottom was a huge river.
