4th of July Weekend - On top of Mt. Evans

We (Grandma Susie & Papa, Uncle Mike & Auntie Kay and of course Ellary, Lori and Scott) took a drive up to Mt. Evans on Friday. We passed many bikers testing their mettle on our way up to 14,258 feet above sea level to see what there is to see. The views were amazing, including the wildlife. Afterward we drove back down into Evergreen for a picnic lunch.


The Mountain Goats seem quite comfortable at this altitude
