Day trip today!

Nanine, Bossa, and I hopped into Addie to go to Black Canyon of the Gunnison National Park, which has been a national monument since 1933 and a national park since 1999.  Deep, steep, and narrow, Black Canyon provides amazing views without the crowds. 

The short trails off of the many scenic overlooks are dog-friendly, so we stopped at each overlook to enjoy the views.  After seeing the canyon from the top, we took the very steep road down to the river.  Addie, in first gear, did great on the steep drive – both up and down!
