Feb 1st 2010
The State of Colorado in US is a travelers paradise, There are lot of lot of places to go, You'll have tough time deciding where to go and what to see, Here is something that happened to us.
Vidya & Naga were back in US after 6 months in India. Vidya and I have met for few trips in US, But Naga and I haven't. We wanted to recreate the fun we use to have when we go for weekend trips to Western ghats back in India. So we were looking for our first trip together sometime in March or April.
March wont be a good idea since winter wouldn't have been over by then. So we were looking for Apr. Vidya's Birthday is on April 11th. So why not celebrate Vidya's birthday in a Trip???? Vidya & Naga are ready, then what else???? We are ready with a rough plan to land to Denver, CO.
Naga, Vidya, Me and Nike (Last minute addition) immediately booked our flight tickets. The only thing pending is to decide where to go in Colorado. :-)
There are 7 National Parks in the vicinity of Denver, We had to choose 2-3 for this trip.
Arches National Park, Utah
Arches National Park, Utah
Canyon Lands National Park, Utah
Capitol Reef National Park, Utah
Rocky Mountain, CO
Great Sand Dunes, CO
Black Canyon, CO
Mesa Verde, CO
After all the monitoring of the Weather, Snow, Road & Trail conditions, we settled for Arches & Canyon lands National Park in Utah.
Here is the final simple plan:
Day 1: Canyon Lands National Park, Utah
Day 2: Arches National Park, Utah
Day 3: Decide at Run time ( Finally we did Pikes Peak & Colorado Springs )

Overall, it was a wonderful Trip....
Cheers,
