Got out on Sunday with my buddy Jon. We decided to hit Mt Falcon.
Temp at 10am was perfect. A little warm, but a slight breeze helped a lot.
By the time we finished it was up around 95*.
Here's a shot of the parking lot, looking west toward what we are about to climb
As you start the climb, looking north you get a great view of Red Rocks Ampitheater
Looking back on the trail as it snakes up
A small meadow you pass through as you top out the first climb.
Small burn area we passed as we headed over to the Parmalee trail
Here's Jon at the begining of the Parmalee trail with a glimpse of the views to come
Jon coming out of a wooded section, about to get some great views
Pano looking south down highway 285
The obligatory Colorado singletrack goodness
And finally, a nice pano of the view coming back down
