LONGS PEAK INN
AND MR.. ENOS A. MILLS

There are many interesting things
to do in Estes Park But about the
most interesting thing to do is TO &c
up and visit Mr.. Enos A. Mills at bis
little log cabin inn.
Mr.-Mills is quite a wonderful char
acter. He is a writer. photographer,
a naturalist and a mountaineer all OF
unusual attachments. He has achieved
success and more people have read
Mills on Colorado. particularly on
mountain life in Colorado. than all
other writer's put together.
Mr.. Mills has written three interest
, ing books which have had a great
sale. These are "wiid Life in the
Rockies" The Spell of the Rockies, =
and In Beaver World These are the
kind OF books to give the boy. because
they are heaithful in tone and fnspir-
ing in the right way. and they are
the kind OF books to send East. when
gift books are sent, for they are typl-
cal OF Colorado and tell OF colorado's
marvellous mountain life and charms
Mr.. Mills Is q regular contributor TO
the Saturday Evening Post. Outing.
Out Door Life. the Youths Companion
and several other well known and
widely read masazines-
These things do not alone make Mr..
Mills interesting but they indicate
that those who know and select the
things that interest the readers OF the
world have found Mr.. Mills ont and
believe him to be interesting
Besides other things Mr.. Mills Is n
hotel keeper. said Mr.. Mills little
log cabin inn." That's what thought
before went there.
The place We went to see Mr..
Mills. for went there to see HIN
more than the inn. Is called Longs
Peak Inn II In nine miles mp the
mountain side from the village Of
Estes Park. From the village to the
top Of Longs Peak Is sixteen miles,
when you get to the inn you have but
seven miles further TO 70 II you want
to 70 TO the top.
There is a good auto road from the
village up to the Longs Peak Inn. II
is an interesting and beautiful ride.
You get lots OF Estes Park scenery all
along the way and you go through
nne forests and see many beautiful
Wild flowers. A friend OF mine picked
fifty different varieties in n short time
along the road side. which he pressed
and sent back to New York City. TO a
friend interested in botanical study.
The ride up and back would make a
pleasant excursion for any day even
If there were nothing to enjoy at the
end OF the ride
Longs Peak Inn sets In a little park
at the foot Of Longs Peak. So far as
the eye can see it is the only huma
institution. the only evidence OF mans
work. in all that great array OF meg
nIficcnt mountain fastness.
The inn consists OF big log build
ing which is the main building" and
dozen log cabins. Its proportions
are best indicated by the fact that a
hundred people. or more. can be ac-
commodatei comfortably.
These buIidIngs are no ordinary log
cabins. The main baiiding is a won
