Rocky Mountain National Park

I first visited Rocky Mountain National Park in 2002 when we moved to Colorado and it has had an impassioned grip on me ever since. I believe that I have been to the park approximately 100 times and rarely am I disappointed. I love how accessible the park is, the abundance of wildlife (elk, deer, bighorn sheep, mountain lion, bear, moose, etc.) and the amazing macro and panoramic views of this glorious spectacle. If you’ve never been, go! I don’t like the new system of entry guidelines and rules for the park, they are disadvantageous to people like me who must drive 3+ hours to get to it and to season or annual pass holders, but I’ll cover that in another way on another day…
