Sightseeing
Many like the challenge of hiking the Long's Peak trail. Long's is one of over 50 14-ers in Colorado (higher than 14,000 feet altitude). Hikers have underestimated how difficult this climb is...and...how COLD. IF YOU GO: dress in layers, bring water, turn back BEFORE you are overly tired.
