At 236 miles, San Juan Skyway is the longest of these five Americas Scenic and Historic Byways, and perhaps its most spectacular.
Its awe-inspiring landscapes also hold engineering wonders such as Otto Mears' million dollar highway and Mesa Verde's ancient cliff dwellings. Traveling the Skyway offers lessons in mans relation to nature, to one another, and in the power of one person to exploit or protect natural and cultural riches. |
