Bergen peak

Karla got her good pair of hiking shoes last weekend, and we thought we would break them in.  With a 9.2 mile hike.  7500 feet to 9500 feet from Elk Meadows in Evergreen up to Bergen peak.  Definitely not as strenuous as a 14er, but still a 4 hour hike.  Good views at the top.  It's the tallest peak close to Denver so we could see downtown off in the distance, along with Pikes Peak even further off to the south.  We had a nice lunch in Evergreen and got back in time to relax before Karla went to a concert with Naomi at Red Rocks.  A nice non-14er Saturday.
