Tundra Communities TrailheadTundra Communities is rated as a short, family-friendly trail but don’t think it’s an easy walk in the park. Near the top of Trail Ridge Road at Rock Cut, the trailhead sits at 12,110 feet in elevation. This tree-less land is tumbled with lichen-covered rock shards and a crust of low-growing greenery and wildflowers.
