I can. When I was out west a couple of years ago, this park was closed due to that freaking government shutdown. So, I need to get back there. Love the lush colors.

The Fall River Road is only open from July 4 to...September? I think. This was taken on July 5. 17 miles one way up, one lane, dirt road, no guardrails. It was just my daughter and I (wife was worried about HAS; she was suffering from some at 7000 ft)...and we went through TWO hail storms on the way up. They aren't kidding about 'weather can change suddenly'
