Travel
Mt. Evans is the road into the sky. Drive from 8,77 feet at Idaho Spring to the 14,240 feet summit and you will pass three through 3 life zones, passing ancient trees, lakes and forest to the land above timberline. Mountain Goats and Bighorn Sheep will greet you as you climb to the top of the world.
Imagine, there are people who bike this road! What a workout!.
We visited the last weekend of September, and the last 5 miles of the road were closed. Michael enjoyed playing by the lake (as you can see above) while I ran to the top of the mountain.
