Trail Ridge Road (Rocky Mtn. NP), Colorado (Sept. 2001)

To Colorado Dept. of Transportation it's called U.S. Highway 34.  To the Nat'l Park Service it's called Trail Ridge Road.  To anyone with their eyes open it's called spectacular.

Not quite as dramatic as the Million Dollar Highway (Ouray to Silverton) or a picturesque as Highway 1, the Trail Ridge Road is still an over-stimulation for the eyes.  Click here for the panoramic of this view from near the highest point on the road.
