I seem to remember this place from my 2001 trip. It's in Silverton.

Every time you post pictures of southwest Colorado I get homesick. What lovely country.

When I left Dillon last year I stopped at a brew pub in Gunnison and shortly west of there turned south on SR 149 which goes through Creede and the highway becomes SR 160 at a little town called South Fork. From there I revisited by old haunts in Pagosa Springs, then on to Durango and up the Million Dollar Highway.

I can't remember if this place was in Silverton or Ouray, but very busy. Looks like a cross between a mountain man's rendevous and a brewpub.

There's a town on 149 on called Lake City. I stopped and gassed up there and chatted with the locals. I learned that there is a popular unimproved dirt road from Lake City heading west to somewhere close to Ouray. From Ouray you can take another such road to Telluride. I was wondering, Miguel, if you ever rode that on your dirt bike?
