Although Trail Ridge Road is usually closed around Columbus Day in October, you can still drive for ten miles through the spectacular Kawuneeche Valley. The majestic peaks catch and hold more snow on this, the western side, of the park. Snow-covered meadows with the sparkling snow are ringed by massive peaks that can be reached by snowshoe, ski and, in some cases, on foot. If you are prepared, winter in the park can be a time of adventure. Always ask about current park conditions; trails may be good for snowshoeing or skiing one day and poor the next.
