Hiking in Colorado
I am no expert at hiking, but since moving to Colorado we have experienced some of the most amazing hikes with breathtaking views. We are not natives to Colorado and have been here only for a short amount of time; however, the use of an app called All Trails it has allowed us to find so many hikes close by and it offers the trail distance and difficulty. We have taken advantage of this service multiple times. Hiking here comes with difficulties, as we are so high in elevation. Getting my body use to the altitude has been challenging. The weather is another concern, I always seem to start out freezing, end up burning up, then by the time I get to the top I am freezing again and you can't forget the chance of rain and hail. So much goes in to preparing for a hike in the Rockies but after every hike I am always planning my next! Mount Bierstadt 14,065 Grays Peak 14,278 Bear Lake, Rocky Mountain National Forest
