Explore-Rocky.com A guide to exploring and enjoying Rocky Mountain National Park by local photographer Jesse Speer. Current pictures and hiking reports are featured.
GORP Rocky Mountain National Park is a national icon — its rugged mountains carve out a skyline that captures the American imagination and serves as both protector and passageway to the west. One-third of the park is above timberline, the 14,255-foot flat-topped summit of Longs Peak included; there are 71 peaks here that top out above 12,000 feet. All in all, enough snowcapped rock, wind-whipped tundra, and thin air to make a marmot giddy.
Rocky Mountain Nature Association The Rocky Mountain Nature Association's purpose is to support research, interpretive and other educational programs of the National Park Service and allied public agencies. To accomplish these objectives the RMNA publishes, sells and distributes interpretive materials to the general public. It also conducts educational seminars each summer and offers membership in the RMNA to the general public. The profit from these activities enhances educational and research programs. In 1986 the RMNA created an allied nonprofit, the Rocky Mountain National Park Associates, which merged back into the RMNA December 1, 2005. It is currently known as the RMNP Fund and operates under the umbrella of the RMNA. The Fund raises money for significant long-term improvement projects within Rocky Mountain National Park including land acquisition, capital construction, restoration and preservation of historic structures, development of educational exhibits, construction of trails and development of wheelchair accessible pathways.
