Charles Edwin Hewes (1870-1947), who is remembered not only for his poetry but as the builder/operator of the historic Hewes-Kirkwood Inn, site of today's Rocky Ridge Music Center. When not managing the Inn, Hewes devoted his time to writing novels and poetry, including "The America," a 690-page epic poem that he worked on for 17 years. While his poetry revered the lands that would become Rocky Mountain National Park, he in fact opposed the Park's creation, fearing it would lead to excessive commercial development.
