Lumpy Ridge RMNP God Rays of Light - RMNP CO Sunrise

Photos of Rocky Mountain National Park Colorado from Many Parks Curve

Photos of Rocky Mountain National Park Colorado from Many Parks Curve. As the colors began to warm and fade over Deer Mountain our attention was drawn to the Mummy Range. The beautiful play of rolling clouds and light over the Mummy Range made for a stunning and dramatic scene. With cameras still on our tripods, we hastily and carefully hiked a short distance in the snow to capture the spectacular vistas enfolding before us. This page includes photos of Ypsilon Mountain, The Mummy Range, McGregor Mountain and Lumpy Ridge after an overnight Spring snow. These photos taken from Trail Ridge Road and Many Parks Curve in Rocky Mountain National Park were taken between 6:03am and 7:04am on Sunday, May 10, 2019.
