Actually I never was in Colorado on this trip! :)

I crossed the Rockies in Montana (just south of Glacier on US 2). I
then went south a little on I-15 but mainly on US routes until I got to
Billings. Then it was I-90.

I'm glad I timed this trip when I did (first week in November, rather
than 2nd week). Looks like that has been quite a storm up where I was...
