Stayed two nights in Timber Creek campground. Drove in and out of Estes Park side so we experience Trail Ridge Road from both directions. Like the rolling entrance times, but be aware that locals dominate picnic areas. Liked the thrill of wading the Colorado River.

We went to several locations in the park, went to downtown Estes, saw a variety of wildlife including Elk, great picnic lunch and interesting history shared along the way!

Had SO much fun with Cowboy Frank as our tour guide! The Rocky Mountains were absolutely breathtaking (definitely recommended to spend a whole day there). Frank was a very entertaining, informative, really nice and knowledgeable guide! Hands down the best experience I had in Denver ☺️
