Stony Pass was great, came across from Creede so long drive into Silverton. Started sleeting so took highway to Ouray. Mineral Creek was great, even with rain. Didn't get Cinnamon in, but Engineers was fun too, lots of snow still but road was clear. Whole drive took about 11 hours with a little sightseeing in Silverton and Ouray.
