IMHO, even a trip from Antonito to Lava Loop and return can offer some interesting
photo opportunities. It may not be 'The Switzerland of Amerika', but there are some
striking "wild west" vistas, herds of antelope (if you're lucky), three or four wooden
trestles, and some rugged cliffs. And don't forget that Sublette, the Two Tunnels,
Phantom Curve and Toltec Gorge are ALL east of Osier!
Most of my better photos of #315 both last year and this were taken EAST ofSublette Big Horn!
See [ngdiscussion.net] and [ngdiscussion.net] for some 2008 pics; here are a couple of my favorites from 09/13 and 09/27:
