This was the first time visiting the Great Sand Dunes in Colorado and what an amazing place. The contrast of biomes is very unique to our planet. Every season sees major changes which help to keep the park ever changing. #nature #colorado #usa #travel #adventure #mountains #sand #rockymountains

This property was absolutely amazing!! It’s the perfect place for some relaxation in the most unique way. The geo dome, hot tub, fire pit and star gazing bed make it worth it to just stay in and enjoy the property. We’ve already recommended it to some friends and will probably be back ourselves ...

Beautiful sunset over the Rocky Mountains. Taken from my air bnb that I had for a few days. Westcliffe is a dark skies area so it is the bare minimum of lights allowed so you also get amazing stars as well.

Westcliffe

The clouds out west are spectacular! Must be that high altitude! This was taken somewhere around Moffat, CO, I'm not entirely sure the exact location. For more info behind the pictures and stories of my pictures, check out my blog at http://www.travelingken.com
