(In winter months you must get to Grand Lake over Berthoud Pass.) In Estes Park you will find the Stanley Hotel, which was featured in Stephen King's book, The Shining. On Main Street you can watch candy makers and browse through a variety of shops. Mt. Evans, just outside of Idaho Springs, is a great drive in the summer. It's the highest paved road in the continental United States. On the way to the summit you can see elk and bighorn sheep grazing, snowfields and unusual, almost petrified trees. The view at the summit is unforgettable. Page 2
