Not Just Good... They're Great!

Dateline: Great Sand Dunes National Park and Preserve, Mosca, CO
The Colorado Tour


Mind boggling... it's just down right difficult to comprehend the scale of the massive dunes of sand at this place. Measuring 750 ft. above the surrounding San Luis Valley and covering thirty square miles, the Great Sand Dunes have astonished visitors throughout history. Now, count the Colorado Tour in that number...

This national park is staffed by a crew with exceptional esprit de corps. We were warmly welcomed by the entire staff, new rangers and veterans alike for our staff "Train the Trainer" program. We also were able to help celebrate National Public Lands Day at the park and participate in a service project. How appropriate for us: picking up trash along one of the scenic drives into the park. And you never know when random trash can be so useful...

Tin roofing trash provides personal ramada
