Real Estate Undressed

Thank you Larry from Real Estate Undressed!  It is always nice to be recognized and this week one of my photos was honored!

This tenacious tree was found along the Mt. Evans highway, the highest paved road in  North America.  It is a spectacular drive and only a few minutes from downtown Denver.  Just go west on I-70 to  Idaho  Springs, turn at the second exit and follow the signs to Mt. Evans.  Its up.  Very  up!

Why not make a day of it, pack a lunch and stop along the way to enjoy the view.  At the top of the mountain it is very common to see Big Horn Sheep, Rocky Mountain Goats, Marmots, Ptarmigan and a variety of other birds.  Of course the view of the Colorado mountain range is worth the trip alone!

If you have time, stop at the Echo Lake Lodge and watch the Humming Birds through the window and munch on some tasty homemade pie.  Yum!

Living in Colorado has it’s benefits…why not enjoy them soon…

Mt. Evans Lonely Tree

P.S. If you look hard you will find this tree!
