Here is a scene from the top of Independence trail at Pence Park in Evergreen Colorado:
This view is truly spectacular in terms of sights in the front range. It was my first time hiking this trail and I will be sure to be back again soon, as this spot is killer.
In terms of hiking spots close to Denver, Evergreen is unparalleled in terms of the number of beautiful trails and worthwhile sights. Lair O' The Bear, Mt. Falcon, O'Fallon Park, Corwina, and Pence Park are just a few of the places worth checking out if you're in the area. In fact, the Bear Creek Trail runs through all of these parks except for Mt. Falcon, if you're in the mood for an all-day affair.
Happy hiking my Steemians :)
