Drive To Estes Park, Co.

8/23/09


Last night was a hot one in Loveland, Co. Wal-Mart. Joe turned the generator on for a couple of hours til the sun went down.

Lake Estes.

Leaving Loveland, Co.

Getting nervous about the drive. What are we going to encounter on the way up?


Drive through the Big Thompson Canyon with stream all the way up.

Lots of curves.

Lots of tree on mountain ahead, Now it looks more like the Black Hills.

Entering Estes Park. What a view!
Looks like snow still on the tops of the mountains.
We went from 5000 feet to 7,787 feet in 31 miles. A lot of work for our little Nest but she got us here. The roads were pretty good with no real drop offs. WHEE!
