"Thru the San Juans, not around them."WE CAUGHT ABOUT the last bar open on a Thursday night in Durango to have a well deserved beer and dinner. My sleeves and pants were still covered in the mud from being stuck; my finger nails we stained rust red. No matter! We had a more important discussion at hand: when to ride the Durango and Silverton Narrow Gauge Railroad.
Scott returning to the Silver Vista in Silverton. Note see-through roof.Fighting off a will to sleep in after our ordeal, we decided to ride the next day after all, leaving our last full day to relax and wander. But the best decision we made that night was to pay a bit more to ride a first-class car: the Silver Vista.
Good times, good times.Two things you should know: Glass roof, and snacks. We climbed aboard Friday and spent the next 6 hours staring at the gorgeous scenery of the Animas River gorge. This ride was why we came to Colorado, and it was worth it 100%. Ask for Bob, and even indulge in a drink or two. You won't regret it.
