The scenery is simply wonderful. Took the trip thru Estes Park. The sun is very warm here. Bertha.

Notes:

Looking south across Bear Lake towards Glacier Gorge. From left to right, it's Half Mountain, Longs Peak, the Keyboard of the Winds, Pagoda Mountain and Chief's Head. Towards the right of the postcard, there's evidence of the fire that occured along the south of the lake. The view today is much changed by the conifer trees having filled up and supplanted the fire-charred spars.
