Description
Estes Park is the Gateway to the Colorado Rocky Mountains! RMNP itself is in the Colorado Front Range northwest of Denver. Situated between the towns of Estes Park to the east and Grand Lake on the west, the Continental Divide runs directly through the center of Rocky Mountain National Park with the headwaters of the Colorado River located in the northwestern region. In the park, one can see mountains, alpine lakes and a wide variety of wildlife, wooded forests and mountain tundra.
In this view overlooking Estes Park and the Colorado Front Range, Long's Peak and Mt. Meeker appear to be nearly touching the sky as viewed from the Birch Ruins.
Some digital effects were applied to the original image after the photograph was made. No electrons were harmed during the transition.
