Driving in the Uncompahgre National Forest, south of Ouray, Colorado, along the scenic Million Dollar Highway, you will find the Idarado Mine Trestle near the ghost town of Ironton. In this photo, the historic remains of the Idarado Mining Company (gold mine) frame the colorful peak of Red Mountain in the background.
