Downtown Windsor History Tour When 11-year-old Bertha Harris stepped off the train in Windsor in 1884, she encountered a dirt street with a handful of wooden buildings.

Discover the past during a guided tour of downtown Windsor! Using firsthand accounts and original photos, a costumed interpretive docent will make historic downtown Windsor come to life.

Walking Levels The following Walking Levels will be assigned to each Active Adult trip or tour to help you decide which trips and tours are suitable for you.

Zoo (Denver) Join us on a Denver Zoo safari and see why the Denver Zoo is considered a leader among its peers in design and planning for the future. The Denver Zoo Millennium Master Plan oversaw the development of Primate Panorama with two phases, one in 1996 and one in 2002, a new main entrance welcoming guests immediately to the awardwinning Predator Ridge in 2004, and Toyota Elephant Passage in 2012. These improvements to the Denver Zoo have affirmed its place as a leader in exhibit design and visitor experience. The rotational exhibit concept introduced in Predator Ridge has been mimicked in exhibits all over the world, and was improved upon for Toyota Elephant Passage. This concept allows different species to be seen in the exhibits at different times by rotating animals through multiple habitats. This stimulates their minds, expands their experiences, and provides important exercise opportunities. Note: Masks are mandatory while riding on the bus. There is a limit of seven passengers for this trip due to social distancing protocols.

Be prepared to follow local COVID-19 protocols at the venue.

Day Trips Georgetown Loop Railroad (Georgetown) The Georgetown Loop Railroad® was one of Colorado’s first visitor attractions. Completed in 1884, this spectacular stretch of three-foot, narrow-gauge railroad was considered an engineering marvel for its time. In 1973, the Colorado Historical Society began restoring the railroad and the 978-acre Georgetown Loop Historic Mining and Railroad Park. On this tour, not only will you will ride the historic narrow-gauge loop railroad in one of the open-air cars, but you will also take a walking tour of the Lebanon Silver Mine, located at the halfway point on the railroad.

The mine tour takes you 500 feet into a tunnel bored in the 1870s. Your guide will point out rich veins of silver and tell you about early-day mining. The temperature inside the mine is a constant 44° F, so bring a jacket. The tour also includes visits to the manager’s office and the miners’ change room. It’s important to note that the mine tour requires walking a long distance on uneven surfaces and low headroom, so keep that in mind. The driver will plan a quick stop for a late lunch, on your own, on the return ride home. Feel free to bring some snacks if you are prone to getting hangry. Note: Masks are mandatory while riding on the bus. There is a limit of seven passengers for this trip due to social distancing protocols. Be prepared to follow local COVID-19 protocols at the venue.

Estes Park Museum (Estes Park) The Estes Park Museum presents exhibits and programs detailing the history of the area with multiple exhibits and historical buildings. Step outside of the main building to explore two historical structures: the 1908 CobbMacdonald cabin and the Historic Boyd Building. The cabin is typical of a turn-of-the-twentieth-century rustic home and displays modest furniture and decorations.

The Historic Boyd Building served as the headquarters for Rocky Mountain National Park when it was located downtown from 1915 to 1923. Today, the building hosts temporary exhibits. The final stop in the tour will be to the Fall River Hydro Plant. Constructed in 1909 to produce electricity for the Stanley Hotel and surrounding areas,

F. O. Stanley sold the plant to the Public Service Company of Colorado in 1928. In 1945, the Town of Estes Park purchased and maintained the Hydroplant until it was severely damaged in 1982 by the Lawn Lake Flood. The Historic Fall River Hydroplant was restored and opened to the public and features original equipment installed by Stanley, machinery from an addition in 1921, and a diesel unit installed by the Public Service Company in 1938.

Interpretive panels document the growth of Estes Park, its insatiable need for electricity, and the Lawn Lake Flood disaster. A stop for lunch will be planned before heading back home.
