View from Black Canyon of the Gunnison National Park

An often heard question, “How far is it to the National Park?

How about a visual answer? Follow the link to what appear to be three slides taken from the same spot. The middle one, though, is just an enlargement of the first. LFL is circled in yellow, above the two wooden fence posts.

To see all the way down to the lake requires being about three hundred yards outside the park. That’s almost six miles from here. It’s another four miles to the ranger station and canyon itself.
