They are in the Mountains and they are parks--what better Colorado combination can you find. Love the Buffalo & Elk and snowy mountain peek views.

It was a little bit cold after we reach the top of the mountain. You can look around and you will see cars just like ants under the mountain. Just be careful when you driving up the hill. More
