Day 7 (Part 2) - Rocky Mountain National Park, Estes Park, CO

Expecting to pay the $20 park entrance fee, we were pleasantly surprised that admission was free today. The Moraine Park campgrounds in the park are approximately 9,000 feet in elevation. Expectedly, the air is a bit thinner than we are used to, and a brisk walk slightly uphill around the campgrounds left us a little more winded than usual. However, the air is also extremely clean, crisp, and refreshing.

Sal was not feeling well and may be coming down with a cold so he turned in a bit early. Vlad and I ate our dinner on the provided picnic table and enjoyed the views of the Rocky Mountains. We are going to sleep early so that we can get up early and go for a hike in the morning. Also included, is a picture of our humble abode for the night.
