 Photo Info
Posted By: Hal Brown
Date Posted: Oct 17, 2008
Description: The daily weather briefing was especially somber: “You can expect rain and thunderstorms in eastern Colorado and you’ll be flying into more in southeast Kansas and Oklahoma.”

Maybe that was what the coyote was warning about. Thunderstorms are atmospheric tricksters of the sinister sort.

Still, there would be no mountains to confine my route. Peli was headed out onto the Great Plains.

First there was the Colorado Piedmont to cross. The Piedmont is an eroded area of the western Plains. This part of the great Denver basin was eroded by north-south trending rivers. The Arkansas River is an exception, crossing eastward right across the Piedmont to the true flatlands of the high plains.

The Arkansas River is the longest tributary of the Missouri and Mississippi Rivers and it was headed my way.
