Mt. Evans

If you are looking for great scenery of the Rocky Mountains, excellent wildlife viewing, and an enjoyable drive then you must check out the road to Mt. Evans! It's one of those rare, get-away-from-it-all drives where the majesty of nature infuses the soul!

For details check out the Mt. Evans website.

Below are pictures from my recent trip to Mt. Evans.

Excursion Of The Week: Ice Skating and Ice Fishing

Excursion of the week: Ice skating and ice fishing in Evergreen, Colorado.

I was planning on going for a walk around Evergreen Lake the other day...but when I arrived I was surprised to see dozens of people ice skating and playing broom hockey on the lake. There were also about a half dozen people just sitting around ice fishing. So, if you are interested in any of these activities you can check out the Evergreen Lake House for more details.

Evergreen is only about 30 to 40 minutes west of Denver; a cute little town with alot of trails and open space nearby. You can also access Mt. Evans via Evergreen, but the route is closed during the winter months.
