Soon we reached the pavement in the park and headed over to the dunes to do a little exploring on foot. A few photos...
A storm started rolling in as we were leaving.....it got VERY windy.
The sign as we left the park
After spending some time at Great Sand Dunes National Park and Preserve my original goal was to check out Hermit Pass, so we headed east again and took Pass Creek Pass Road back to Colorado 69 and headed north. By the time we reached Westcliffe again, it was starting to get late so I decided to skip Hermit Pass this trip.....so I'll have to return another time. We continued north and eventually made it back to Johnson Village, where we had a good dinner at the Coyote Cantina (one of my favorite places to eat in the area).
That's it for Day 3. Day 4 to be continued...
