High Mountain Doings

From 8200 feet along one side of the Upper Arkansas River Valley in central Colorado, my blog is about many things: travel including river and bicycle trips, and other experiences as well. The focus is on photography, not lots of text.

Near Hyde Park

North of Hyde Park. A walk out nearer and overlooking the river, but I didn't go in.


Entrance to the Vanderbilt Mansion, immediately north of Hyde Park on huge grounds. Our layover day was in Hyde Park, so I bicycled back out here then.


This is the Vanderbilt Mansion.


Franklin Roosevelt lived just south of Hyde Park, in a less pretentious but still very nice house on large grounds. Vanderbilt called Roosevelt a "traitor to his class!" Good for FDR.
