We drove over to Telluride from Moab, intending to camp in the town park, and then spend a few days exploring the jeep trails in the area (to the extent possible in an Element). But town was packed with a Blues and Brews festival, so I headed off to this forest service campground above town. As soon as we go up there and selected the site, it rained for an hour. It cleared enough for supper, a rainbow, and short walk, and then was rainy and windy all night long.
The next day was also rainy, so I opted to stick to the paved highways. Latter I learned that we had hit the remnants of a tropical storm from Baja. The same rain had caused some flooding that blocked access to Burr Trail in the Powell Lake area.
