Scenic Drive: Stillwater Reservoir Area

The entrance to the Stillwater Area with Flat Top Mountain (12,354 ft) in the distance

I decided to post a couple of picture from our drive between Yampa and the Devil's Causeway Hike. While not as scenic as the Flat Tops Scenic Byway, the drive had several spots worth noting.

A slope covered with past peak Aspens. This area seems more wind blown than the northern area that the Flat Tops Scenic Byway goes through.

The Chinese Wall and one of the reservoirs

Looking down on the Bear River as it winds lazily through the valley. There were several fisherman standing in the call waters.
