This episode of Big Blend Radio's "Lost Angel Travel Adventures with Linda Ballou" podcast is all about the scenic drives, historic highlights, and recreational opportunities you can experience along Colorado's San Juan Skyway.

The San Juan Skyway is a 236-mile loop through the most sublime scenery Colorado has to offer. The drive takes you through sage-littered plains up vibrant river valleys to lofty peaks streaked with snow and tops out at glacier cirques at 11,500 feet.
