Tallest Parking Lot !


This is the parking lot for scenic views on the Trail Ridge Road. The blue Ford Focus seen in the picture is the car in which I came here. And of course, I was not the one driving...
I guess this is the tallest parking lot I have ever been to, at 11,000 feet of altitude

The Road Itself


And here's a picture that covers the road itself - The Trail Ridge Road. One of the nice things about the US is that most scenic places are motorable despite the high altitude.
