Some more pictures by kb98 from our SW USA trip last month. From Taos, we drove north into Colorado, crossing the Rio Grande and heading over the continental divide into the San Juan Mountains. As you can see the roads weren't exactly busy and the scenery was stunning.

The mountain lion picture was taken at the Rocky Mountain Wildlife Park, one of those places you can stop at on a whim if you're on a road trip and aren't in a particular hurry. This was a zoo of Colorado animals and was pretty good although the enclosures were so nice and large that we couldn't spot a few of the animals. Having said that, while I can imagine the grizzly bear was hiding in the foliage, there really wasn't anywhere for the elk to secrete itself....
