Drive took place Sept 4, 2004 from 9 am to about 11 am.
Winding road thru the foothills to the Rocky Mountains

John`s Recollections - 2009 Foothills begin soon after you leave Loveland and help to provide the excitement level of approaching the Rockies. Should mention again that the season National Park pass is of great value. This must of been our 5th or 6th usage and savings are now in the hundreds. Estes Park is delightful and with the Rocky mountains in the background it can be awe inspiring.
