Trail Ridge Road

Mountain Index Rocky Mountain NP 028We took one day of our visit at Rocky Mountain National Park to drive out Trail Ridge Road and stop at the scenic vistas.

It really was beautiful up on the Alpine Tundra.

I wouldn’t call it hiking but we did walk out the Tundra Communities trail. You could tell you were at more than 12,000 feet in elevation.

Did I mention that it was cold, too?

We had a beautiful view of Longs Peak from our campsite and I tried to get a photo of it from this side but the clouds were hampering my efforts!
