Located at 7792 feet msl in the mountains of southwest Colorado.

I took from plane about 3K feet above the town. A footnote is: A glacier carved this little box canyon during the ice age. This photo will give the non-pilot an exceptional view.

Climbing to 12-13K feet above sea level make a plane grunt and groan. Struggle she does, but I did it and the pictures were phenomenal! Looking up from terra firma was good, but looking down from above was awesome! Doing a circle in a box canyon will play tight nerves on the none pilot. A beginning pilot should not take the challenge. Many have and are now underground.

Many years ago it was there, someway it managed to burn down? It was located between Ouray and Red Mountain pass. Mount Abram is mountain in background on Hwy 550.
