It takes a bit of imagination. It's more clearly visible from the west.

Great trip! If you're not used to the elevation, give yourself time to acclimate. I only acclimated for about a week and had to take frequent breaks past tree line, but we'll worth the trip. Barr Trail is also a great trip. "Easier" but longer than this path. 10/10, especially for submitting one of Colorado's 14ers!

If you get up early, it's worth driving up the mountain in your own car. Where else can you drive up a four-thousand-meter peak?

The garden's red rock formations were created during a geological upheaval along a natural fault line millions of years ago.

At about 250 BC, Native American people camped in the park; they are believed to have been attracted to wildlife and plant life in the area and used overhangs created by the rocks for shelter.
