Historic photographs paired with contemporary photographs taken from the exact same locations illuminate the evolution that has occurred in the Estes Park area, as well as in Rocky Mountain National Park, over more than a century. From the Stanley Hotel to Lake Estes, see whether the landmarks and landscape of Estes Park have been completely transformed or if they remain almost unchanged.
This book contains 134 pairs of images showing what the site looked like historically and what it looks like today. There is an historical narrative for each pair written by Dr. James Pickering.
