We took a nice hike in the Bear Lake region and viewed a few alpine lakes along the way.

Rocky Mountain National Park
While visiting Denver, we took a side trip to Rocky Mountain National Park. This is one of the big ones - high mountains, beautiful scenery and wildlife. We saw lots of elk, but unfortunately no moose (still need to check that box).
We took a nice hike in the Bear Lake region and viewed a few alpine lakes along the way.
We took a drive over the the Trail Ridge road, which is the highest continuous paved road in the US (12,183 feet at it's apex).
We took the long way back to Denver over Berthoud pass (11,307 feet). I was glad we didn't have the motorhome going over that one!
