Chimney Rock & "True Grit" Meadow +
Chimney Rock is one of the more recognizable formations anywhere in Colorado and the meadow in the photo was the location for the scene of the John Wayne version of "True Grit" where he rides across the meadow with guns 'ablazin'. Courthouse Mountain is the large formation behind Chimney Rock and together they make a formidable presence in the San Juans.
