A few years ago, Mike and I took off on a road trip with our motorccylces, making a loop around the southeastern corner of Colorado. Part of our trip was a ride over Trail Ridge in Rocky Mountain Park. This two lane road is the highest continuous highway in the United States and reaches a maximum elevation of 12,183 ft (3,713 m). We stopped along one of the scenic pullouts to stretch our legs and take in the view. The peak in the background is Longs Peak, one of the 53 peaks in Colorado over 14,000 ft, and reaches a height of 14,259 ft. Good times!!
