Ophir Pass
Ophir Pass was the last trail of the day for us, and it was still very nice and sunny.
As we drove up Ophir Pass, we were passed by a lot of other people making their way down the Pass. We did stop for a short break before the shelf-road part of the trail.
Just as we got to the start of the shelf road, we saw a few more vehicles starting their way down the shelf road. So, we waited until they had passed us. Then we went up the shelf road, which was a fun and breathtaking part of Ophir Pass.
We stopped at the top of Ophir Pass at the altitude sign for a short break and took in the view.
After a few pictures, we went down Ophir Pass on the Highway 550 side. We ran into a few more groups of vehicles and ATVs going up Ophir Pass.
At the end of the trail we stopped and aired up for the drive back to Ouray. It was a great first day.
