Drive to Mount Evans

We went for a drive to the Mount Evans area yesterday; it's only about 45 minutes from our house so it was perfect for a day trip with the kiddos. The photo on the left was taken about halfway there - you can see there's snow up on the highest mountains! The photo on the right is when we were almost at Summit Lake; the lake behind Jamie is called Echo Lake. Summit Lake is as far as cars can go after Labor Day.
