Description
A Black and White image of Last Dollar Road on the San Juan Scenic Byway in Colorado.
Bumpy, colorful, vast and adventurous, this hidden dirt road in historic ranching country gives stunning rewards for those willing the take the time to get around the bend.
As Last Dollar Road winds through a low valley surrounded by jagged peaks and deep-blue skies, each bend delivers jaw-dropping scenery. At one turn you�ll find yourself in a cathedral of sun-bathed aspens; at another, a flat vista with views of a quilt-like terrain of furry pines and aspens; turn again, and you�re in a wide-open grassy field, where pristine nature is the only thing between you and the San Juan Mountains.
Don�t miss the clear view of Wilson Peak, recognizable not only to geo-savvy Coloradans, but also to anyone who�s ever examined the label on a Coors bottle. Another point of interest is the historic ranch from the original �True Grit� western starring John Wayne.

Last Dollar Road isn�t a once in a lifetime trip � it�s more like a three times in one-year necessity. Go during summer for lush greenery as far as the eye can see; again in the fall for unparalleled red, yellow and orange foliage; and in spring, when grassy fields are blanketed with alpine wildflowers.
When this road was a mining supply route in the 1800s, the workers probably weren�t too enthusiastic about its sharp turns and bumpy patches. But today, travelers have a whole different attitude. Thrill seekers (and confident drivers) boldly take on Last Dollar with enthusiasm.
