Mt. Evans
Yesterday, Mt Evans opened for the season, and since it was sweltering here at the house, I rode up to the top of Mount Evans via Squaw Pass. Everyone is convinced that you need a reservation to ride to the summit of Mount Evans, but the truth is, not only do you not need a reservation, you don't even need to pay.
When I got there, I explained to them that the road is a state highway, and as such, they can't charge me to drive on it, I was just going up and turning around and coming back down, so I didn't need to pay. Then I rode to the summit. It was actually very nice weather. Stunning views as always. I'm always surprised by the view of the Rocky Mountains to the south and west of South Park. At the summit, the temperature was 54F.
