Over the next week or so I will be posting hike reports from my recent trip to Rocky Mountain National Park. Each report will include highlights and photographs from each hike, including the Keyhole Route on Longs Peak, Sky Pond, and the Wild Basin area, among other stunningly beautiful hikes. This posting launches the series with an overview of the park.

"Are we out of this godforsaken Boulder Field yet?" The famous trek to the Key Hole on Longs Peak requires a difficult slog through the Boulder Field, a rugged section of "trail", roughly 2/3 of a mile in length and climbs about 800 feet. The incredible views on the other side makes it all worth it, as you can see by the pictures.
