Colorado State Highway 141, CO-145 to US-491

 

Location: SH-141 and SH-145, Montrose Cty

Reassurance shield after the 145 junction.

Location: SH-141 at the Montrose County Line, San Miguel Cty

Reassurance shield as we enter San Miguel County. This part of 141 is scenic, but not breathtakingly so.

Location: SH-141 and CR 19Q, San Miguel Cty

Reassurance shield as we’re about to climb up to the top of a high mesa.

Location: SH-141 and CR 36, Egnar, San Miguel Cty

A few miles after that, we’re up on the mesa and we’ll approach the non-town of Egnar.

Location: SH-141 and CR H1, San Miguel Cty

Reassurance shield as we head out of Egnar

Location: SH-141 and CR F4, Dolores Cty

Reassurance shield about a mile later as we enter Dolores County

Location: SH-141 and CR D, Dolores Cty

Reassurance shield about two miles later.

Location: SH-141 and US-491, Dolores Cty

No shield signage as we approach US-491. I suspect this may be a relic of when the  roadway was numbered US-666 and sign theft was high, encouraging CDOT to minimize the number of shields posted. Anyway, follow 491 north to Monticello, Utah and 491 south to Dove Creek.

Location: SH-141 and US-491, Dolores Cty

Right for 491 north and left for 491 south. SH-141 ends here.
