Teton Bugling Elk, a true monarch of the forest, Painting by Dani Ellis, that's me, the painter that is!
The Royal Gorge of Colorado is certainly a sight worth seeing. The Canyon is really rugged and beautiful. This is a shot taken down river from the famous Royal Gorge Bridge, the world's highest suspension bridge.
Just East of the bridge looking down at the Arkansas River.
The famous Royal Gorge suspension bridge which you can walk across or even drive across if you have the nerve. Not me, nuh uh! Funny how heights never used to bother me when I was a kid. Now that I'm an old lady I feel like I'm being pulled over the edge. However I have crossed suspension bridges over canyons and felt that way until I walked back and forth over them several times and that feeling of vertigo went away. I just didn't want to pay the $25 bucks to get into the park so I could walk over the bridge. Drove Joy up the other entrance too and it's a pretty drive over a very low maintenance back road that you don't want to take an RV over. Saw plenty of big RV's and big Class A motorhomes with toads coming in the main entrance without any problem and they have big rig parking at the amusement park area.
