Travel Colorado

My friends and I have made a habit out of doing a fun, nature-filled road trip every Memorial Day weekend. This year’s Memorial Day weekend trip was to explore Colorado. I’ve always loved Colorado for what it offered in the winter (for my snowboarding fix), but I have never truly explored this area in the summer time. This was my opportunity to get to know Colorado more for what is is known for – the great outdoors, without the “distraction” of ski resort hopping.

Check out our trip pictures!

: A peek inside the ice cave at The Grottos

: Avery Brewing Co

: Baby elk, just 5 hours old (Rocky Mountain National Park)

: Leaving The Grottos ice cave – you have to jump past a mini waterfall

: Inside the Grottos ice cave – there is plenty of light

: Sunset over Rocky Mountain National Park

: Posing in front of the giant waterfall but getting a little scared….(you can’t tell, can you?)

: Inside The Grottos ice cave

: Dinner at Greco’s in Frisco, CO

: Elk sighting in Rocky Mountain National Park

: A late snow storm hampered the park’s efforts to clear the road through the park. Although it was a hassle to drive around the park to get to the other side, it was nice being able to take a picture like this with no cars around!
