Leaving Nebraska.
Oh beautiful for spacious skies.
For amber waves of grain.
For purple mountains majesties.
Above the fruited plain!
America! America!
God shed his grace on thee.
And crown thy good with brotherhood.
From sea to shinning sea!

Rocky Mountains.
Rainbow Curve, 12.8 miles from the Beaver Meadows park entrance, lies on the outside edge of a wide switchback on Trail Ridge Road as it swings around a blunt ridge between Hidden Valley and Hanging Valley.
This major viewpoint at 10,829 feet is just below timberline, the transition zone between a subalpine fir and spruce forest and alpine tundra of grass and delicate wildflowers. The vista looks down on Horseshoe Park, an open grassy valley floored by twisting Fall River.

Beautiful scenery KW. And that shot of the bunkhouse is great. Super composition, you are getting better all the time. And in case you did not know, I was in Estes Park Colorado when your tour guide was a mere 11 years old. Maybe he was 12. But It was 1962 I think.
