Our next stop was Dakota Ridge RV Resort in Golden CO. Although it was a bit crowded,
we decided to stay a whole week because there was so much to do and see in the area.
First up was Buffalo Bill Cody’s Grave and accompanying museum. The view from the parking lot was impressive.
Next came Lookout Mountain Nature Center—another lovely view.
We stopped at the Bison Herd Overlook
and then drove up Genesee Mtn to enjoy that view.
Downtown Golden had a lot of offer.
The Colorado School of Mines Geology Museum had an impressive mineral exhibit.
The Pioneer Museum had period housing and bees.
Clear Creek Park had tubers to watch and sculpture to appreciate.
Coors had a tour that started at a flower filled parking lot and ended in a beer tasting lounge. Ray was in his element.
Near Golden, we visited Red Rocks Amphitheatre, a really beautiful outdoor concert hall.
Thunder Alley, a dirt bike track
And Dinosaur Ridge, a mile and a half walk offering dinosaur tracks, geological wonders and some pretty hardy plantlife.
Back at the campsite we encountered hardy wildlife too. This rabbit was right by our trailer door!
