Saturday night, we checked the forecast for Sunday and quickly realized we had to go somewhere.
The choice was clear, either stay in Denver and roast, or escape to the
mountains and stay unroasted and (relatively) cool. Unsurprisingly, we
were ready for a quick getaway. After all, who enjoys being seared by
the blazing sun?
We considered a few spots and settled on a short hike at Kenosha Pass.
Not too far, but far enough. Not too high, so we could stay below the
tree line, but high enough to enjoy cooler temperatures. So the next
morning, after an hour drive, we arrived, unloaded, and took in the
scenery. The high-altitude meadows and mountain ranges looked amazing…
but the sky stole the show - it was CLOUDY!
