It’s entirety lies within Colorado. No part of it is in Wyoming. Knowing this I still answered Wyoming falsely just to get it right. William 10 months ago Question #3 is worded wrong. It should have said “Besides Colorado, which state hosts a major portion of the Rocky MOUNTAINS. ALL of Rocky Mountain National PARK is in Colorado. Broccoli Free Zone 10 months ago 7/10. Blew a couple of them. Not Pikes Peak? Where is Mount Egbert? Greg 10 months ago Rocky Mountain National Park does not extend to Wyoming. It stops south of the Poudre River valley which is at least40 miles from the Wyoming border. Simply look at a map and you will see that this question is invalid given the supplied answers. I live less that 40 miles from the park and have spent a lot of time in and around it. Karen Leaman 10 months ago Rocky Mountain National Park is ENTIRELY within Colorado. Please correct your quiz! slymet 10 months ago Got 9 out of 10 correct. Missed question on precious metal. Did not know and guessed silver instead of gold. Margie 10 months ago 6/10 Melinda 10 months ago 6/10. Should have gotten them all right, I lived in CO for a couple of years, in the mountains. Vito 10 months ago 8/10 – should have been 9/10, but I accidentally twitched as I was gliding across to hit the right answer, the other wrong answer, I had no clue. So, from now on, I DO NOT put my finger near the ‘click’ as I scroll. For the 6th time this month I’m not allowed to post. Wish they’d get it fixed. Copy & paste time. Patty L 10 months ago 5/10…..
