After breakfast at the Absolute Bakery, we headed for the hills. Not the high country, where the aspen is just begin to yellow-mottle the forest. No, we went up the east slope of Menefee Mountain, which sports a mix of Gambel oak, chokecherry, mountain mahogany and other brush.
Some of the oak leaves are bright red on the edges and bright green in the middle, a striking contrast.
On the east side of Menefee Mountain, just a couple miles from Mancos, we found this small corral made of poles and baling wire. Rustic to the max! With cell phone and radio towers lining the ridge top above this spot.
And from the top of Menefee, we got a sweeping view of the Town of Mancos, the Mancos Valley and beyond in all directions. tv
