Description

At the Eastern entrance to this National playground is the modern town of Estes Park, with an elevation of 7,549 feet. Estes Park has daily mail service, direct telegraph and long distance telephone connections, and most efficient electric and phone service. Its water, only a few hours from the eternal snow fields, is 99 per cent pure by test, and fresh pure milk from inspected herds is delivered daily.

There is also a fine Public Library, an Auditorium, Protestant and Catholic churches, and an up-to-date weekly newspaper and printing plant.

Adjoining the Village is the Estes Aviation Country Club featuring a 3000 ft. runway, 9-hole golf course, tennis courts, scenic passenger flights and other recreational activities.

There is a well managed pavilion for those who like to dance. Special dances are frequently held at many of the hotels and lodges. The theatres offer the latest motion picture releases. Horseback riding, bowling, hiking and golf are major recreational activities.

Adjoining the Village are the administration headquarters for the fifty-four million dollar Colorado-Big Thompson Diversion project, which is to divert the waters of the Colorado river from the western to the eastern slopes of the Continental Divide by means of a 13-mile tunnel through the Rockies.

Outstanding and nationally known boys’ and girls’ camps where young people may enjoy healthful surroundings under sympathetic instructors offer campcraft, woodcraft, mountaineering, natural science and horsemanship.

During the summer Estes Park is the center of activity for many thousands of people, its local shops and stores economically supplying their every need. These stores are up-to-date and stocks are complete. Prices are moderate. Many of these stores maintain a daily delivery service to outlying districts.

Come up here for a day, a week or a month and you’ll go back home with the gallery of your mind filled with the pictures these hills and canyons and aspens, slopes and gulches and glaciers have hung upon its walls.
