Rocky Mountain National Park and PBS's Education Series has been presenting The National Parks: America's Best Idea Series each Saturday evening at 7:00 p.m. at the Beaver Meadows Visitor Center. The last program will be shown this Saturday.

Nearly a decade in the making, The National Parks: America's Best Idea, a documentary series from acclaimed filmmakers Ken Burns and Dayton Duncan, is a breathtaking journey through the nation's most spectacular landscapes and a celebration of the people, famous and unknown, who fought to save them for future generations to treasure.
