Random photo from my collection.
Zac and I went to Rocky Mountain National Park for our honeymoon in 2017. The views we witnessed there were some of the most incredible I’ve seen. This particular photo was taken somewhere along Old Fall River Road, a one-way seasonal road that leads to the Alpine Visitor Center. Rocky Mountain National Park is easily a place I could go back to again and again.
Old Fall River Road is a narrow, dirt road. Experience an incredible 9-mile scenic drive on Old Fall River Road, beginning at the Endovalley Picnic Area and ending at the summit of Fall River Pass and the parking area for the Alpine Visitor Center at an elevation of 11,796 feet.
Take in stunning views of Mount Chapin and Chasm Falls as you climb through the sub-alpine and into the alpine life zones. Old Fall River Road was built over 7 years, beginning in July 1913 and dedicated on September 14, 1920. – National Park Service website
