There is a new video posted on Bosque Bill's Backroads travel & camping blog. After much procrastination I've compiled a video from footage taken last season.

Seeing some of these old mines jogged my memories.

Thanks for sharing! It’s been a while since I was in that part of CO. When you think about the harsh weather conditions those things have been through its pretty amazing.

Frank, JWL, and Vic, thanks for leaving your comments. Those were great trips with beautiful scenery. Yeah, amazing how well some of those structures have held up.

Bill, you sure are getting the travel bug stirring. Oh, how we could return to that area at any time. Thanks for posting and sharing.

Thanks, Ski. Yeah, stay at home orders are still in effect for Colorado and San Juan County has been particularly aggressive in keeping non-locals away. Last I heard there were provisions to cite and fine non-locals for accessing the backcountry. I know better than to go where I'm not wanted... but the travel bug is biting.

Bill,
Adding to the chorus, really loved the video composite of many mines in Colorado. As a family we went to one of the mines around Silverton, CO a number of years back and had quite a good time. We took a tour inside the mine and got an excellent tour with a man who used to work the mines. He had lots of stories to share, and maybe some tall tales thrown in. Anyhow your drone footage was very enjoyable to watch, and it looks like your piloting skills are progressing along with your editing. Great job! Thanks!

Poky, thanks for your very nice comment. I appreciate it very much! Sounds like you had a wonderful tour that provided many lasting memories.
Sagebrush, I hope you do get the chance to roam in that area. It's gorgeous, but some of the roads are very rocky.
