Missouri to Estes Park, CO
My wife and I are making a trip to Estes Park, CO to see some family and to go to my sister's wedding. We plan on driving across Kansas via I70 and then I25 to Lyons and up Hwy 36 to Paradise RV Park...

Highway 36 across CO doesn't go into, or near Estes Park. You need to go north and pick up hwy 34 to go into EP.... You can take 36 across Kansas to Saint Francis, KS north on 27 to highway 34 then into EP (just a little south of EP) All of 36- 27- 34 are 2 lane, real good roads. They go through a few small farming/Ranch towns...no problem. Other than that it's just Coyotes, Cattle and Antelope across there.
Skirting around the NE side of Denver is difficult without the toll of 470.
About the best way to beat the toll is to take the Tower Road ext to 104th to I25 & N from there. Tower road is not the open country road that it used to be & 104th to I25 is not the empty road that it used to be either.
I do like Brooks379 route to avoid the whole Denver mess.
