This is what I came for.  The ride from Denver to Gunnison is a beauty.  Up out of Denver's Brown Cloud, up over a series of passes, until Mt. Princeton towers over South Park, and the Collegiate Range defines the Continental Divide....then down to Highway 50, past Salida and up over Monarch Pass and the Divide.  On the other side, lies the green, rich Gunnison Valley.
