Day 13 - Is That Snow?!

Yes, it was. Today we drove for Moab Utah to our campsite in Rocky Mountain National Park 8,600 feet above sea level. To get there, we traveled on I 70 through the Rockys. We went along the Colorado River for most of it, then headed north on a small gravel road for about 20 miles ot get there faster. At one point, the road reached 10,066 feet about sea level.
When we got to the Park, we were stunned by teh amount of wildlife. As we got there, we were met by a heard of reindeer crossing the road. we set up our tent and decided to explore a bit. There, the mighty Colorado River is just more that a stream.

That night, we settled in with a dozen warnings of bears...fun
