Let's drive the highway to the sky and thank the sick 14 year old from Kansas who fought for Rocky Mountain National Park. Yes, it's true. A teen arrived in Colorado, loved guiding hikes to the top of Long's Peak and worked tirelessly to preserve Rocky Mountain National Park. Join the adventure as we wind our way from the base of the mountain in the open forest up to the tippy top of the continent. We watch water flow down on both sides of the Continental Divide and gaze in awe at the views from the windswept tundra.
