Eleanor Parker had just graduated from college when she hopped on a train and traveled across the country to work for a summer at the Horseshoe Inn in Rocky Mountain National Park. She wrote home almost every day, and these letters and Eleanor's journal are the basis of this lively account of the young adventurer's summer that was filled with moonlight horseback rides, dancing in the casinos, visiting other lodges, and hiking to waterfalls. Includes photographs and maps of Eleanor's hikes and rides, many to the long-gone historic park lodges and all to landmarks and sights familiar to today's park visitors.

Following In Their Footsteps is a guide into the history of the trails that have been used and loved for hundreds of years. 
Discover why and how some of the best-loved trails of the Colorado's Northern Front Range were built: some of them follow ancient Native American routes, others were created for loggers or miners, and some were built to bring tourists to the state of Colorado. 
Learn about the back-breaking labor involved in creating and maintaining these trails, and the stories of the people who made them, their love for the outdoors, their pursuit of wealth, their dreams, and their failures. Filled with tales of murder, innovative ideas, and daring deeds, Following In Their Footsteps will give you new appreciation for the trails you love, and new ideas for trails to explore. 
With Then and Now photos and maps, and descriptions of today's trails.
