I have spent the end of December and most of January working, packing, moving and unpacking. Now that I was done packing, moving and unpacking, it was time to start exploring this area that I’m now living in.
Views of Denver from Green Mountain
Since I live at the base of Green Mountain, I figured I’d check it out first. There are tons of trails that cross this mountain. I started at the trailhead that starts off Alameda Parkway and hiked east for great views of downtown Denver and the surrounding area. Green Mountain is located on the William Frederick Hayden Park which has over 2,400 acres of open space.

I love the Denver area of Colorado. You should also go to Colorado Springs and visit the Garden of the Gods, it's beautiful, I had lots of fun when I was there. I wanna go back with my bike and go to Pikes Peak. I was there last time in a car. On my last trip I visited Denver and then Steamboat Springs, loved it. Nice pictures :-)
