Colorado 2008 - pt 2

Here's some more pictures of the Elk in the Rocky Mountain National Park:


While we were driving through RMNP, we went up the road to the Alpine Visitor Center. Essentially the highest point along the road we were on. The air got a bit thin up there, as we were at 11K feet or so. But the views were gorgeous.

They had just plowed and opened the road the day before we went up.
The little red sign says "AREA CLOSED - Dangerous Snowfields" Notice the height of the pole it's attached to. That pole is there so that the snowplows know where the building is...

And here's the visitor center. The sign above was just to the right of the entrance way, just past where the lady in pink is standing. Notice the other poles at the front of the visitor center...
