Enos Mills fue un escritor y activista visionario cuyo trabajo de toda la vida culminó en el establecimiento del Parque Nacional de las Montañas Rocosas. Impulsado por un profundo amor por la naturaleza salvaje, perfeccionado a través de aventuras personales en las Montañas Rocosas, se convirtió en un incansable defensor de la conservación. A través de sus escritos y conferencias, Mills buscó compartir la sobrecogedora belleza de la naturaleza y la necesidad urgente de su preservación. Su legado perdura en los paisajes protegidos que defendió.

"The pathway to the Heroic Age through the forest lies."
This volume is the consequence of dissecting all previous editions and selecting the essence of the very early times spent in Estes Park. Enos A. Mills' first book, "The Story of Early Estes Park and a Guide Book" is, as always, a glorious experience to explore the Estes Park of the past. Enos did not include the "Guide" section in his second edition "The Story of Estes Park". Nor did the subsequent editions "The Story of Estes Park and Grand Lake", "The Rocky Mountain National Park Memorial Edition", "Early Estes Park", and "The Story of Early Estes Park, Rocky Mountain National Park and Grand Lake". We have tried to remain faithful to the original "paleface" names of areas, rock formations and canyons of this time period, simply because we cannot keep up with the recent explosion of confusing name changes. We have added a few new goodies we hope you will enjoy. We thank the Stanley Museum of Estes Park, Colorado and Kingfield, Maine, for graciously allowing us to include a portion of Flora's personal perspective of Estes Park.
This book is about Enos Mills (the Father of Rocky Mountain National Park) and his border collie, Scotch, and their many adventures together.
