Rocky Mountain National Park
One of the most beautiful places in Colorado, we highly recommend spending some time in Rocky Mountain National Park. Notable wildlife include elk, moose, bears, big horn sheep, wolves, and more. Elk rutting season should be nearly over in late October, but please make sure you give all wildlife plenty of distance. We'd like the wedding to be the talk of the weekend, not someone getting charged by a bull elk.
If you are wanting to enter the park prior to 2pm or on weekends, please grab a permit for timed entry from the National Park Service. https://www.nps.gov/romo/index.htm
Outdoor Activities
While not organized directly through the wedding, there are fishing trips, ATVs, photography tours, guided hikes, etc. available. If you are interested in getting a group activity together, please let Casey and Joe know and we are happy to see who else is interested in going along.
