I don't have a ton of information about her day overall, but I will share some interesting facts about the park:

Access to the park requires a timed-entry reservation. After completing the drive on the Mount Blue Sky (formerly Mount Evans) Scenic Byway, which climbs more than 7,000 feet in just 28 miles, you reach the summit at an altitude of 14,130 feet. This is the highest of the Rocky Mountain, bringing you to the rarefied world above timberline, a singular amalgam of hardy wildflowers, lichens and grasses, furry mammals like pikas and marmots, rock-jumping mountain goats, and alpine lakes. This is perhaps the best place in Colorado to catch a glimpse of the stately bighorn sheep. The weather is volatile - be prepared for wind, rain, lightning, snow, and hail any day of the year. The eastern portion of the byway travels from Echo Lake to Bergen Park via Clear Creek County Road 103 and Jefferson County Road 66.

Thank you for adding your comments to the photos Tara!

So many spectators were watching these two and they wouldn't move so the car could leave
