Last week, Gov. Jared Polis announced that June is “Dark Sky Month” in Colorado. The state is already a global leader in preserving dark night skies.
This year alone, Florissant Fossil Beds National Monument, Mesa Verde National Park and four mountain towns were recognized as dark sky places by the International Dark-Sky Association. With this designation, they join Black Canyon of the Gunnison National Park and Great Sand Dunes National Park.
While these remote locations are good at preserving their starry views, the cities on the Front Range release a significant amount of light pollution. The excess light negatively impacts nearby Rocky Mountain National Park’s night skies, as well as its wildlife.

Colorado’s “Highway to the Sky” has partially reopened for the 2021 season just in time for Memorial Day weekend.
Trail Ridge Road in Rocky Mountain National is currently open to Milner Pass on the west side, about 16 miles from Grand Lake Entrance, and Rainbow Curve on the east side, about 12 miles from the east side entrances.
Cyclists and hikers can go as far as Milner Pass west and Rock Cut east, according to officials.
Trail Ridge Road is the highest continuous paved road in the U.S. The 48-mile roadway travels through the high country of Rocky Mountain National Park, reaching a maximum elevation of 12,183 feet.
