Day 14 Leadville, CO to Gypsum, CO

We met with Christine at the Rocky Mountain College Library where she is the head librarian.  She gave us lots of things to see and do in Leadville so we spent the next 4 hours walking the town (bring your own air) and visiting the incredible mining museum where Christine’s husband is director. 
Continental Divide.
Leaving Leadville, we headed North on US24 crossing the Continental Divide at Tennessee Gap (10,424ft).  We eventually wound our way down 24 to I70 where we headed West to Gypsum, CO and tonight’s destination of the River Dance RV Park along the Eagle River.  We arrived at 2:55pm and quickly setup, took a stroll along the river and did the laundry.
Another spectacular campground view!
We sat outside for a while but the winds started gusting and we decided to observe from inside.  Oh, we also were forced to eat the leftovers from that wonderful dinner last night.
