Estes Park.

Ut has been a while since we have been to Estes Park. I remember there were a couple of ways in. One was no steep drop offs and the other had steep drop offs with lots of curves. (Wife does not like the drop offs.) Is the route in from Loveland the one without the hairpin curves and super bad heights? Thanks!!

    US34 out of Loveland is the one with the curves but I don't think the drop offs are bad. US36 thru Lyons is easier. We spend a month in EP every year and the best route for us is to take Colorado 66 off I25 and pick up US36 in Lyons. Taking 36 out of Denver takes you thru Boulder. Lots of stop lights. Colorado 66 has some lights but they are strung out with higher speed limits.
