Bear Lake in Spring by Zara Otaifah
One of my favorite spots in Colorado is the Bear Lake which is located in Estes Park | Rocky Mountains National Parks. Bear Lake is a popular, year-round destination in Rocky Mountain National Park, located at 9,449 feet of elevation. It’s situated 13 miles southwest of Estes Park, Colorado, making it an easy trip year round. The 11 surface-acre alpine lake is one of the most frequently photographed features in the national park. It provides visitors pristine mountain views with plenty of ways to enjoy the scenery. For me its a breathtaking scenery, the lake is not that huge but I can sit for hours just pondering and conttemolating about it’s beauty and how nature could be perfect. I stopped to take this picture when it was cloudy during my hike in the round type trail around the lake.
