It gives you a nice sense of the Eastern Plains, and it's a less stressful drive since it's not on a packed interstate. I say, go for it! > 2. Estes park - any idea if Trail Ridge Road will still be open? > You can always get to the town of Estes Park (well, except during a blizzard but then you can't get anywhere). As for Trail Ridge Road in Rocky Mountain National Park, the lower portions of the road are open year-round. As for the upper portions (over the Divide), no way to tell; it's weather dependent. They actually closed it briefly last weekend I believe, and then reopened it. If they can clear it very easily, or if it clears itself off in the daytime, they'll keep it open. Once the snow gets going, they give in and close it. > 3. Do they sell Mich Golden Draft Light in CO? > No clue, I'm a wine & whiskey person :) Trail Ridge Winery has a tasting room on US34 in Loveland, and Snowy Peaks Winery has a place in Estes Park.
