Rocky Mountain National Park, Colorado


Our new truck was not quite ready today.  We had to wait for the proper 5th wheel hitch to come in.  So, we went to Rocky Mountain National Park for the day.  It was so beautiful there.  The temperature was in the 50s and 60s.  There was snow in the mountains and the melt is causing the rivers and streams to rush full blast.



We saw elk near Big Horn crossing and the chipmunks along Trail Ridge Road were very friendly.  No, we weren't feeding them.  But they probably smelled the jerky on our hands.  We bought some really good elk jerky for today's snack.


Hopefully the new truck will be ready in the morning, so that we can get back on the road.  If all goes well, we hope to be near Yellow Stone by tomorrow night.

  1. I'm so glad you visited Rocky Mountain National Park. It's one of my favorite places. My profile picture with the chipmonk was taken on Trail Ridge Road.
