Estes Park and the Rocky Mountain National Park

This may have been one of the most beautiful and serene places we visited on this journey. Estes Park is a beautiful place at the foothills of the Rocky Mountain National Park. Bonanza and The Shining was all filmed from this area. Estes Lake adds to the beauty of the town. A whole day was spent in the Rocky Mountain National Park. The ride to Alpine Visitors Center at the top was breathtaking and sometimes on the edge. Total elevation was at 14,000 ft. At the very top was still ice and quite a view; You did not have to go to Alaska to visit the Tundra.
It was a good day, just needed more time to explore the area. A place that we will definitely come back to visit.
