I did this in the snow 2 Aprils ago. A stunning and special place. I’d love to go back in the fall some time.
It’s like a magnificent painting. Gorgeous
I got back from RMNP in May. Absolutely loved it. Saw 3 moose, about a thousand elk and some mule deer.
Emerald Lake Trail was covered in snow and very slick so we unfortunately didn’t do the hike, but every trail was amazing
That looks stellar, I hope that I’ll be able to visit someday.
Gorgeous! How’s the hike out to that spot? I really want to go there, but I’m kinda clumsy with an injured ankle so I’m wondering if I’d be able to do it.
Image Transcription:
[An image taken of a pristine mountain view and a lake in the foreground. The lake is shimmering in a deep green hue, with teal and blue colours blending into the water’s surface with the shadows. The mountain slopes along the edges of the lake display patches of white snow with clusters of thin evergreen trees in varying shades of green. Further in the distance, the rocky faces of the mountain slopes are interspersed with patterns of white snow that line some of the rocky edges. The sky above is a vibrant blue, with puffy white clouds covering sections of it. Ths sun is shining over the entire scene as it rests just above the jagged edges of the mountain tops, slightly to the right of the image centre.]

Colorado is the most diverse and beautiful state in the United States. I challenge someone to prove me wrong :)
eh, Montana is more diverse. bigger too
I loved Colorado. It’s my all time favorite state to Visit, but nature wise, I thought Oregon and California have more diversity.
To begin with, they also have the ocean. Amazing forests, beautiful mountains, volcanoes, fantastic lakes and my favorite, huuuuge trees!
The ocean is a key point for sure. Go south inColorado and you have the sand dunes and the indigenous housing carved into the rock walls, go east and you have the prairies and grasslands, go halfway west and there is the Rocky Mountains, go further west and it’s landscape mimics that of the desert with the high erosion canyons. Also, can’t sleep on Red Rocks amphitheater and Denver’s culinary options. We also have 54 mountains that are above 14,000 feet that provide views that CGI can’t even match.
Colorado is my favorite state. But I don’t think it’s the most diverse. California has mountains, oceans, deserts, large lakes, rivers. Even caves.
We have caves, just most of them are man made and we call them mines. But I guarantee equally as thrilling to explore!
