Was hiking to emerald lake in RMNP today when this bull and several cows came out of the woods and onto the trail. I had to scamper up onto this boulder to give them space. Took about 15 mins till they stopped grazing on the damn trail and we could pass. Pretty bad ass. They are clearly accustomed to people as they didn't spook, but the bulls are in rut about now, so he was flexing for his audience.

Friend rented a place in Dillon right across from the amphitheater for the month of September and we went up for the weekend...

Used to work right down the street. The 35 mile drive to work was easily the most beautiful one I have ever had.

My 9th floor office near DTC has a good view of the city trees starting to turn. 

Will be up in Estes Saturday

Flying in tomorrow to meet some buddies. Staying in Westminster I think. Any good breweries around? Saturday supposed to go to Estes Park. Worth it?

There’s a pumpkin and Pilsner event in EP on Saturday. Not sure how the shutdown would affect going to RMNP

You're brave.  How bad was traffic and parking?  

Lol was gonna ask that too. I read Georgetown was closed on Sunday to non-local traffic. I just don’t have it in me to do the passes right now, unless I take a day off and go midweek

Yeah, the park might be wonky (they are trying to keep it open) but Estes should be fine.  Will likely be crowded, though.
