Loveland, the town is a far piece east of Estes Park, headed out to the plains. Loveland the ski area is a far piece south and then west of Estes Park at the entrance to Eisenhower Tunnel.
My Dad was a part owner of the Stanley for a couple of years. *sigh*
anyway, he took the Stanley and put it up Trail Ridge which closes in the winter.

I got kicked out of Sunday school for saying there was a good chance Jesus could have been black...
