Sightseeing

(Actually Bison) 5 mins from the Carriage House and one exit to the west on I-70 (One of the greatest panorama of snow capped mountains at this exit). Great to see the great American buffalo. There is a nice, paved walking path that runs along the south side for an easy hike. All of this is free.

Drive to the top (almost) Mt. Evans and conquer a 14er. Great for the views and for those not accustom to Colorado's altitude (Beware altitude sickness and drink plenty of water; even sitting in the car you can get sick). Have a confident driver (Or for about $20 there are often college students making their summer money that will drive you down). 1 hour 30 mins from the Carriage House
