Estes Park, Colorado has a fascinating history. The Estes family, first pioneer settlers; Lord Dunraven and Isabella Bird; Griff Evans and “Rocky Mountain Jim;” naturalist Enos Mills; Longs Peak, Rocky Mountain National Park, and Trail Ridge Road; the Cheley camps and YMCA of the Rockies; F.O. Stanley and his hotel; Buel Porter and his Christmas designs; and a myriad of others have made Estes Park what it is.
Mel Busch takes you through this history in short stories focusing on the people and events of Estes Park through the year. Originally published by the Estes Park Trail-Gazette as articles entitled “This Week in History,” these stories range from Estes Park’s connection to world crises to the tragedies, comedies, accomplishments, and foibles of ordinary residents. Utilizing accounts in the Trail-Gazette, memoirs of participants, and other sources, Busch brings Estes Park history to life–one week at a time.
