I finally arrived at my study site on 31 May at Pagosa Springs.  I took some photos near the Wolf Creek ski resort, overlooking the valley near the San Juan River and National Forest.  I crossed the Mississippi, Missouri and Rio Grande Rivers on this trip thus far.

I visited fellow Hobart and William Smith alumni Peter and Debbi Miller.  It was the first time I had seen them in 35 years and this year is our 35th reunion.  None of us will be attending, unfortunately.
