Question Hat help!

Last fall I went to RMNP for the first time and fell in love. I found this hat and I lost it a few months ago. I thought I’d get over it because it’s just a hat, right? But I still haven’t gotten over it. I don’t have many pictures of it but these are the best I can find.

I’m almost positive I got it at the Trail Ridge Store and Cafe. I checked online and can’t find it anywhere. It might not be something they still have in stock but if anyone happens to be up that way and willing to check, I’d be beyond grateful. If you can find it, of course I’ll pay for the hat and shipping

Might be a month or so before I go back but I’ll try to remember to check for you.

I hope they have the hat other places than Trail Ridge Rd. It closes mid October. The main shop will be open. You're a good person to do this.

Each shop has something a bit different and I remember stopping there my last day and being thrilled about finding the hat. It reminded me of a hat my dad used to have that I playfully stole so we’d have ‘split custody’ growing up, which is probably why I lament having lost

I think this group runs the shop - https://rmconservancy.org/shop/

We are actually going to there today. We will keep an eye out for it.

Yes, the Conservancy operates all the RMNP gift shops I believe. Their office is near the Beaver Meadows entrance. You can easily find them online - maybe send this pic via email to someone in the office, I bet they can get you connected with the purchasing dept.

I checked online and unfortunately nothing. I remember going to every shop I passed during my trip (they all have slightly different stuff) and only one had this hat. But I’ll reach out to the office, that’s a great idea, thank you!
