Independence Pass, Colorado, USA
Sometimes we just have to take a picture showing that we've been somewhere. Sometimes the picture is of us with a sign or a well known icon which documents that we really went somewhere. If done well, there is nothing tacky about such a documentary picture.
This picture was taken Memorial Day weekend more than decade ago. Walking just beyond this sign, the snow was over 10 feet deep!
At 12,095 feet (3,686 meters) above sea level, the summit of Independence Pass straddles the Continental Divide and is the second-highest paved mountain pass in Colorado. The pass has a 6.5% grade on both sides of the summit.
