I was just at Rocky Mountain national park last week. Beautiful tree colors and I saw a lot of elk. Also went to garden of the gods and pikes peak. Colorado is a beautiful state.

[@ErikStensland]

So glad you got to enjoy the autumn colors here.

Always great content Erik! Found your channel about a month ago. Last week I showed up at your shop (beautiful pictures BTW!) to say hi but I think you were not there, only a desk person. Next time! Keep up the great work

[@ErikStensland]

So glad you are enjoying the content. Thank you!

[@willmarshall409]

Hope you have a great visit Sherry!

Good thing they keep Bear Lake rd open year around. Winter is my fav time to hike in that area

[@ErikStensland]

Agreed!

[@PaulBeiser]

Well done, Erik! You mentioned Thunder Lake, and Wild Basin is a favorite of mine in November since it is a little bit lower, so less chance of snow, and it’s well protected. Take care, Paul

[@ErikStensland]

Hey Paul! Tony caught me up on your summer. Hope you are healing up. Let me know if you come up this way.

[@PaulBeiser]

@@ErikStensland Thanks so much! For sure..

Going to be in Denver from Dec 7th to 11th. is it still a good time to visit this National Park ?

[@ErikStensland]

I have a video about December coming out on Wednesday. That should give you a good idea of what you can expect.

[@caseyyu2112]

I plan to visit in the middle of november and will be flying into denver. Where do you recommend staying if we plan to visit the rocky mountains?

[@ErikStensland]

Well, I'm a bit biased, but I recommend Estes Park. Here's a link to some great information on this Casey: www.rockymountainnationalpark.com/gallery/lodging/

[@caseyyu2112]

Could we spend two days exploring Estes park and the rock mountains? also would the weather be safe to drive from denver airport to Estes Park at night time?@@ErikStensland

[@ErikStensland]

If you enjoy hiking and watching wildlife then you could spend weeks here. If you just want to do a quick drive on the roads then a day might be fine.

[@caseyyu2112]

How will the weather conditions be like for driving there mid november? will I need snow chains or anything?@@ErikStensland
