Lone cyclist rides on the land just across the Arkansas River from downtown Salida, Colorado. The land is now vacant and barren, owned by the Union Pacific Railroad. Salida is a historic railroad town that supported the mining industry in and around the Arkansas River Valley. The Denver and Rio Grande Western Railroad laid the original tracks through the valley.
