Two Continental Divide Passes in one day!

At 12,095 feet elevation.  Sorry about the porta potti....Pro Challenge Cycling coming to town tomorrow and there will be lots of people at the summit to cheer them on.
We chose Hagerman Pass to return at 11.095 feet.  It's a 4 wheeler off road pass and quite slow and a real bouncer and jiggler.  Notice that there still snow in the background.  This pass was used by miners and others looking for a better life back in the 1880's traveling by horseback, wagon or foot.
The Continental Divide separates water from going east to the Atlantic, or west to the Pacific Ocean.
