This image was taken while I was riding the train as we headed around a curve of the Animas River headed to Silverton, Colorado.  This is the Durango & Silverton Railway which follows the river most of the trip.  The water looks so fresh and clear and is very popular for Kayaking.

This is an image I captured while waiting for the train to come by on the Highline of the Durango & Silverton Railway.  This is near the Rockwood station which is near where people kayaking the Animas River have to pull out.  Just behind where I was this kayaker would have to leave the river due to it becoming more treacherous because of low water and rocks.  The fast flowing water looks like it made for quite the adventure in a Kayak.  I observed one person tip completely over a couple of times and the water is fairly cold.
