Our time camping within the national park was at an end, and next stop was the West Side of RMNP; between us and our next stop was the Trail Ridge Road, topping out at just over 12,000 feet. Quite a climb and looking at these pictures, I can't believe we pulled the RV over that! At one point, a car in front of us, going uphill, decided randomly to hit their brakes (did I say, going UP hill?) right in front of us....Gary was not a happy camper. Never hit your brakes or pull out directly in front of a big RV or truck going up a steep climb (where they are trying to make the hill and definitely do not want to brake), or going downhill either (where you are liable to get hit)!

| The wildflowers are everywhere, of course! |

| All is good, no wind, no lightning...this is okay. |

| Oops, now for a little white-knuckle driving... |
