John Farley Overlook

Up on top of Cuchara Pass is a Forest Road/County Road that goes through the San Isabel National Forest.  We drove part way to see how the road was and came to this overlook.  You can almost look down and see the small town of Cuchara but not quite.   All around the overlook were these irises blooming.  Not sure if they are wild since the area has been disturbed.  There are yellow dandelions everywhere along with the blue irises so it was a very pretty picture. 

The road just got rougher from there so we thought we would come back and try using the 4 wheeler to go through the forest.  We seem to be able to get out sightseeing once a week even though we have three days off.  One day we have to do errands and at least one day the weather is bad either rain or wind.  Overall its been nice as far as the temps go staying in the 70's and low 80's.  The only bummer is when it rains it tends to hail but so far its only been pea sized.
