The Westbound Zephyr glides downhill parallel to the Colorado River about two miles west of the siding of Dell. It's another nine miles (roughly) to the next siding of Range. Even though the Dotsero Cutoff is nearly 36 miles long, there are only two sidings in that stretch! To use an east slope analogy, that is like going from North Yard to Rollins with only two sidings!

The siding of Dell is a difficult one to shoot as it is in a canyon that is secluded from the road. However, there is a nice shot of the tracks a few miles west of Dell. Here, the Zephyr comes in to view through an S-Curve.
