You can get back to Colorado Springs in just five hours taking the interstate. But every chance I get, I opt for U.S. 50. The drive takes an hour longer, but the scenery and lack of traffic make it worth the extra time. Rather than write up the route that feels like second nature, I'll just offer my road pictures from that quiet Sunday.
