Weston Pass – National Historic Auto Tour
Kerri and I took a drive last Sunday, not only to spot a couple boondocking spots for Campendium.com, but to take the Weston Pass between Fairplay and Leadville. Weston Pass Road was originally a 16 mile wagon road between the two towns in the late 1800’s. Now it cuts through the National Forest, past a few private ranches, a Forest Service campground, some nice boondocking along the river, and a 11,000+ foot peak. We were unable to make it over due to snow still blocking the road… not that they gave us that information 14 miles earlier when we started up the road – but we spotted numerous old cabins as we neared the top.
