We made a trip to several locations in Western Colorado around the 4th of July. After going over Cottonwood and Kebler passes in Gunnison County (see our images from that area) we headed northwest on Gunnsion National Forest Road 265 toward Collbran and then to Colorado National Monument near Fruita, and the Uncomphagre Plateau southwest of Whitehorse to Norwood along the Divide Rd. Later we made a trip to the White River Plateau north of Glenwood Springs on August 1, following FR600, 601 and 602.
These areas yielded 11 new species for the website.
