EDITORS COMMENTS
Winding through the rugged San Juan Mountains, the Million Dollar Highway is a breathtaking stretch of road that connects Silverton and Ouray in southwestern Colorado. This 25-mile section of the San Juan Skyway Scenic Byway is renowned for its stunning vistas, steep cliffs, and historic mining towns.
As you navigate this treacherous route, you'll be treated to panoramic views of towering peaks, alpine lakes, and lush valleys. The highway's narrow lanes are flanked by ancient forests and rocky outcroppings, with occasional glimpses of abandoned mines and old railroad tracks.
The Million Dollar Highway was built in the early 20th century as a lifeline for miners and settlers who flocked to these mountains in search of riches. Today, it remains a testament to human ingenuity and perseverance. With its sheer drops, hairpin turns, and precipitous grades, this highway is not for the faint of heart – but for those who dare to take on its challenges will be rewarded with some of the most spectacular scenery in North America.
This photograph captures a moment on this iconic road trip route at dawn or dusk when the light casts long shadows across the landscape. The image invites viewers to step into this majestic world where nature reigns supreme.
