View from the top of Ophir Pass, Colorado, the United States. Ophir Pass is a dirt road going between Silverton and Telluride. The pass goes through the San Juan mountains of southern Colorado. The San Juan mountains are part of the Rocky Mountain range. Shown here are clouds with a blue sky, and a wide, long view of the mountains. This is summer, and so there is little snow. The natural orange color of some of the mountain earth gives an extra dimension to the scene.
