First up, Kijii -- riding the Silverton Narrow Gauge Railroad in Durango, Colorado. Then trying to straddle all of the Four Corners -- before the drive to Monument Valley. Great places to visit--my old stomping grounds--growing up in SW Colorado. Mesa Verde National Park is not far from the Four Corners and is interesting place to visit-- highly recommend. To me, these cliff dwellings are one of the most underrated Wonders of the World. It is hard to imagine how this could have ever been constructed. It should be been known than it is..   Across the Wide Missouri (1951) was filmed where I once attended Scout camp: Haviland Lake near Durango. A Ticket to Tomahawk (1950) was filmed around the Silverton Narrow Gauge Railroad. Denver and Rio Grande (1952) may have been made based on the Railroad too. The Naked Spur (1953) and Butch Cassidy and the Sundance Kid (1969) were partially filmed there also. The Sheepman (1958) and Tribute to a Bad Man (1956) were filmed near Montrose (further north from where you might be).
