Alluvial Fan in Rocky Mountain National Park, Colorado
The Alluvial Fan in Rocky Mountain National Park. Near Estes Park, Colorado, on 08/20/2010.
The New Alluvial Fan 2013. Rocky Mountain National Park.
As a result of the Colorado Flood of 2013, the Alluvial Fan on the Endovalley road in RMNP has been completely redesigned and Roaring River basin relocated. The road is out. If not for the 1982 earthen dam failure at Lawn Lake, the devastation to this area and the Town of Estes Park may have been considerably more destructive. The Flood of 2013 was the size of Connecticut. Estes Park received 11 inches of rain .. Boulder received 16 inches. The soundtrack was composed and performed by me.

Rocky Mountain National Park and Pikes Peak (Tundra) in COLORADO U.S.A
Pikes Peak is the highest summit of the southern Front Range of the Rocky Mountains of North America. The ultra-prominent 14,115-foot (4,302.31 m) fourteener is located in Pike National Forest, 12.0 miles (19.3 km) west by south (bearing 263°) of downtown Colorado Springs in El Paso County, Colorado, United States. The mountain is named in honor of American explorer Zebulon Pike who was unable to reach the summit. The summit is higher than any point in the United States east of its longitude.
Rocky Mountain National Park is a national park located in the Front Range of the Rocky Mountains, in the north-central region of the U.S. state of Colorado. It features majestic mountain views, mountain lakes, a variety of wildlife, varied climates and environments—from wooded forests to mountain tundra

Rocky Mountain National Park (RMNP) Trail Ridge Road Rainbow Curve & Forest Canyon - Day 4 of 5
Rocky Mountain National Park (RMNP) Trail Ridge Road Rainbow Curve & Forest Canyon - Day 4 of 5.
Rainbow Curve is one of my favorite overlooks. It has some of the best views of the park.
What you can see (Horseshoe Park):
The distinctive fan of light-colored boulders on the left of this picture is a relatively new feature on the land. A high mountain dam failed on July 15, 1982, and in a matter of hours the water violently disgorged it load on the valley floor.
What you can see from Rainbow Curve:
1 Mount Chapin (12,454)
2 Mount Chiquita (13,069)
3 Ypsilon Mountain (13,514)
4 Mount Fairchild (13,502)
5 Hagues Peak (13,560)
6 Mommy Mountain (13,425)
7 Roaring River
8 Bighorn Mountain (11,463)
9 McGregor Mountain (10,456)
10 Deer Mountain (10,013)
“Rainbow Curve, 12.8 miles from the Beaver Meadows park entrance, lies on the outside edge of a wide switchback on Trail Ridge Road as it swings around a blunt ridge between Hidden Valley and Hanging Valley. This major viewpoint at 10,829 feet is just below timberline, the transition zone between a subalpine fir and spruce forest and the alpine tundra of grass and delicate wildflowers. The vista looks down on Horseshoe Park, an open grassy valley floored by twisting Fall River. Note the light-colored alluvial fan on the north side of the park. It formed in 1982 when Lawn Lake, a small reservoir in the Mummy Range, broke after heavy rain. A deluge of water, boulders, and debris swept down into the valley.”
Just beyond the flower covered meadow lies Forest Canyon and the Continental Divide with Mount Ida. This picture, taken at high noon, shows the problem of photograph trees at this time of day. Photographs taken in the early morning or late afternoon would render the trees a truer green.
Tundra Protection Area
Hundreds of feet cause damage that takes hundreds of years to restore.
PLEASE STAY ON THE TRAIL!
The Glacial Landscape
Like other high mountain valleys, Forest Canyon was filled with ice and shaped by glaciers during the past two million years. Here, ice flowed through a stream valley and followed the straight line of the ancient faults. Side valleys contributed their own rivers of ice, and carved the canyons of Hayden Gorge and Gorge Lakes The Rolling terrain of the high country was untouched by glacial ice.
What you can see:
1 Longs Peak (14,255)
2 Stones Peak (12,922)
3 Spraque Mountain(12,713)
4 Hayden Spire
5 Hayden Gorge
6 Terra Tomah (12,718)
7 Mt Ida
8 Gorge Lakes

Roaring River at new Alluvial Fan, Rocky Mtn. Nat. Park (after September 2013 flood)
This is the Roaring River as it passes through the Alluvial Fan in Rocky Mountain National Park in June of 2014. I used the word new because this entire landscape is different than it was prior to the September 2013 flood. The flood essentially destroyed good access to the Alluvial Fan and completely changed the course of the river. As a result of the flood, the Old Fall River Road is completely blocked a very short distance off of U.S. 34, which is a shame because that was one of the park's most scenic drives.

The Roaring River is a 6.5-mile-long (10.5 km) tributary of the Fall River in Larimer County, Colorado. The river's source is Crystal Lake in the Mummy Range of Rocky Mountain National Park The river flows through Lawn Lake before a confluence with the Fall River in Horseshoe Park. The collapse of the Lawn Lake Dam in 1982 scoured the river's channel and deposited an alluvial fan of debris in Horseshoe Park.

Aerial view of Alluvial fans in Leh valley
Good stock footage of Alluvial fans which can be seen aerially in the Ladakh region of Jammu and Kashmir, India.
Ladakh land of high passes is a region of India in the state of Jammu and Kashmir that extends from the Karakoram Range in the north to the main Great Himalayas to the south, inhabited by people of Indo-Aryan and Tibetan descent( According to Hinduism Yaksha people born from 5th wife of Kashyapa Rishi). It is one of the most sparsely populated regions in Jammu and Kashmir and its culture and history are closely related to that of Tibet.
Historically, the region included the Baltistan (Baltiyul) valleys (now mostly in Pakistani Kashmir), the entire upper Indus Valley, the remote Zanskar, Lahaul and Spiti to the south, much of Ngari including the Rudok region and Guge in the east, Aksai Chin in the northeast, and the Nubra Valley to the north over Khardong La in the Ladakh Range. Contemporary Ladakh borders Tibet to the east, the Lahaul and Spiti to the south, the Vale of Kashmir, Jammu and Baltiyul regions to the west, and the trans–Kunlun region of Xinjiang on the north side of the Kunlun Range across the Karakoram Pass in the far north. Ladakh is renowned for its remote mountain beauty and culture.
In the past Ladakh gained importance from its strategic location at the crossroads of important trade routes, but since the Chinese authorities closed the borders with Tibet and Central Asia in the 1960s, international trade has dwindled except for tourism. Since 1974, the Government of India has successfully encouraged tourism in Ladakh. Since Ladakh is a part of strategically important Jammu and Kashmir, the Indian military maintains a strong presence in the region.
The largest town in Ladakh is Leh. Almost half of Ladakhis are Tibetan Buddhists and the rest are mostly Shia Muslims. Leh is followed by Kargil as the largest town in Ladakh. Some Ladakhi activists have in recent times called for Ladakh to be constituted as a union territory because of perceived unfair treatment by Kashmir and Ladakh's cultural differences with predominantly Muslim Kashmir.
An alluvial fan is a fan- or cone-shaped deposit of sediment crossed and built up by streams. If a fan is built up by debris flows it is properly called a debris cone or colluvial fan. These flows come from a single point source at the apex of the fan, and over time move to occupy many positions on the fan surface. Fans are typically found where a canyon draining from mountainous terrain emerges out onto a flatter plain, and especially along fault-bounded mountain fronts.

Rocky Mountain National Park: Memorial Day 2015, Kawuneeche Valley
This footage takes us up Trail Ridge Road around the Kawuneechee Valley. A large elk herd is often grazing just inside the park entrance. I set a day aside to view wildlife and wasn't disappointed. I started on the Onahu trailhead, followed the creek up to Green Mountain and descended into the Big Meadows area before continuing along the Colorado River headwaters. I had hoped to see more bull moose.
Hiking the Rocky Mountain
I when on a trip to Colorado, we did a lot of cool stuff over there, meet a lot of great people! I really hope you enjoy the views!
