Rosie hiking Mount Evans Summit Trail




Pete rode 9 mile up mount Evans from the park entrance to Summit lake with Matthew, 2900ft of elevation gain.




Richie Porte and others from team Sky cycling were riding on the mountain too so we were in good company, we passed them on the way down.



Lunch in Idaho Springs

Root beer is a specialty.



Checked out the knife shop

The we drove up to Trail Ridge Road to see Rocky Mountain National Park, it was raining on the way up.




Elk posed for us beside the road!


We drove back home via Grand Lake and Boulder, Rosie loves all the flowers in the small towns.
