Day 4: Rocky Mountain Low
Hiking Rocky Mountain National Park

 No rest for Arvind!

John drove Arvind and Jay up to Rocky Mountain National Park and checked out Bear Lake.

Temp: 5F

Wind: Intense

Verdict: Run away! Run Away!

Plan B: a hike to Gem Lake, a much lower and thus warmer locale back near Estes Park.

Arvind's favorite 10 year old, Jay, was along to offer moral support.

The hike started at the Lumpy Ridge parking lot and featured views of the Twin Owls.

Mighty Gem Lake.

Arvind survives yet another Peterson adventure!
