Road Through the Birch Musmatta

White Birch trees, also known as Paper Birch or Betula Papyrifera, bring a unique beauty to Colorado's landscape with their striking white bark and delicate leaves that turn golden in the fall. Native to cooler climates, these trees thrive in mountainous regions and are often found in mixed coniferous forests. Their distinctive appearance and ecological significance make White Birch trees a beloved feature of Colorado's natural scenery, providing both aesthetic appeal and habitat for wildlife. Last Dollar Road is a rustic and cool way to get between Telluride and Ridgway Colorado. Of course, there is a paved road but that would be no fun.
