Thanks everyone.

Did anyone notice the Dr. Pepper bottle in the gas pipeline image? I was surprised that it didn't even have a chip in it. BTW- the pipeline is exposed and corroding. If it's still in service it'll start leaking (or worse) some day. The sign had the name of a producer on it but no phone number.

Thanks

Cimarex Energy Company of Colorado

I have a friend and former coworker that lives / works in Denver. I tried to contact her and see if she had ever heard of them. The company that I used to work for has a fairly large presence in the business. The one that I work for now is working on it but we are primarily a producer / transporter of oil.

The closest town is about 5 miles south and it may have 50 people in it. This was on the road going to hotel in Provident City (ghost town) that I posted in the City Life section

#2 is one of those hit the brakes, glad there's nobody behind me and this is a remote county road, shots. It pays to constantly look around when driving

Yep, but not the company on the sign. Ive never heard of them. My former employer is one of the big fish in the midstream sea. I'm also a big time royalty holder in CO. I get almost $40.00 a year in royalties.
