In the foreground is the Harbison Meadow in Rocky Mountain National Park
that is frequently visited by elk. In the middle is the Rio Rancho area of
homes on large tracks. Click here to visit the setting in June when it is
very green. There used to be a very active gravel pit and concrete operation
in the Rio Rancho area. The foundations of most of the homes around Columbine
Lake were poured with concrete prepared at the pit, which is now a deep lake.
The owners of the land have put thousands of hours of sweat equity and
machine time into restoring and protecting the area. The Rio Rancho
home is an excellent value when you consider the unique cost saving
advantages it received by being at the very heart and pulse of home
construction in the Grand Lake area.
Thisis looking down from the top of Mount Patterson to the Tonahutu Creek Valley,
(a little downstream of Big Meadow). Looking across to the southwest
is Little and Big Gravel Mountain (to the left) and Park View Mountain to the right.
