Heading back, we first went to the Rocky Mountain National Park and Estes Park, thinking that we could drive through on Highway 34. We are such Southern Californians... Yes, Highway 34 does in fact close for the winter part way up the mountain, and we had to turn around, and back track an extra 6 hours... Made for a VERY long day.
The scenery was first rate though - a beautiful area, lots of wild life, and spectacular views.
Getting in at midnight, we stayed that night in Vail, and took the aerial tram there up to a little "amusement park" sorta thing that had some activities such as mine tour and toboggan rides that we passed on, to get back on the road.
