Rocky Mountain National Park Dining Room Girl: The Summer of 1926 at the Horseshoe Inn - Paperback

by Kay Turnbaugh (Author), Lee Tillotson (Author)

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.
