Crossing the Colorado Prairie —
Lamar, Cheyenne Wells, Kit Carson, Ordway, Holly

US 50 is definitely the route to use crossing eastern Colorado in this part of the state. It runs from Holly though Lamar and Las Animas to La Junta. Then, depending on your destination, you can head northwest to Pueblo or southwest to Trinidad.

Limon area La Junta area Colorado Springs area Denver area Walsenburg area If you're heading down US 287 between Lamar and Springfield be ready for some delays. There is a major reconstruction project underway and it doesn't appear it will be completed before September 2007. Expect delays, but don't reroute just on this account.

I don't have any photos from this part of the state to post here, but I will eventually.
