2013 Ouray Trip - Day IV - Ophir Pass

On Wednesday, we took one of my favorite passes called Ophir.  It starts out green and beautiful, but at the top it is extremely rocky.  Almost every time we go over the pass, there is a friendly little marmot at the summit waiting for people to drop snacks for him to eat.  We didn't see him this year.

Most days on the trails, we take along a cooler and have sandwiches for lunch, but today we were in Telluride at lunch time, so we did a little shopping and stopped for lunch at Brown Dog Pizza.

Since we had a very yummy pizza for lunch, we shared a Cobb Salad for dinner at the Gold Belt Restaurant in Ouray for dinner.
