That is awesome! Once you're that high up the air gets pretty thin... I don't like being over 8000 feet anymore, when I was younger 12,000 would have been nothing!! lol How times change
Beautiful scenery, I'm glad you got the chance to drive to the highest paved point in the lower 48!
The continental divide would be cool there. If you cross it in southern New Mexico it's all flatland, no mountains anywhere!

I've driven past there more than a few times!
Oh wow, I guess I never realized it would drop elevation like that. It makes sense now that I think about it. Duh!
