Pictures of the Little Snake River Valley Page 1

The valley of the Little Snake River is where my family and I have lived since 1973. The Little Snake River begins about 30 miles east of us and meanders along the Colorado-Wyoming state line. Down river it stays in Colorado and eventually flows into the Yampa River which flows into the Green River which flows into the Colorado River.  The inhabited part of the valley is about 60 miles long and 10 miles wide and has a population of less than 1000 people. Some of the pictures are in Colorado and some are in Wyoming.
