I took a weekend trip with the boys down to the Great Sand Dunes National Park, the southern part of Medano Pass, and Zapata Falls, which was frozen still. It’s wild to think the temperature was above 90 at the desert floor and below freezing at the falls!
The dunes are really a treasure. As always, pictures don’t do it justice – the place takes hours to drive a circle around. It’s enormous!
Medano Pass is pretty special too. We didn’t have the time to do the whole drive, and I think the center part is closed for the season still – but we’ll be back to do some more exploring and camping in the summer.
