GRANT (~35 Min Drive) - This place is one of our ABSOLUTE favorites. Their hours are odd and vary based on season, so this is one to call in advance. We haven't had one dish, from their chef, that hasn't been incredible. During summer months, the chef has an airstream food truck on site, featuring a completely different menu.

This is a 10 mile (roundtrip) out and back hike to rock formations. this trail ventures through an open burn zone with great views. Although the hike is longer, there are no big climbs, just rolling hills. Warning - there is minimal shade, so avoid going during the heat of the day during the summer.

This is a great little local hike (~2 mi round trip) and usually is not over crowded. The summit has some GREAT panoramic views and tops out at just over 9,000 FT. We frequently take visitors here and highly recommend it, if you head that way. note: the parking for this hike is at a local neighborhood park. the trail starts by the swing sets

[SCENIC DRIVE TO 285 - BEST IN NON-WINTER MONTHS] If you have extra time, on your way back to 285, and would like a scenic drive, through a canyon alongside the river, featuring unique cabins and rock features, and have an extra ~10 mins, we recommend taking Elk Creek, from the neighborhood, back to the highway. Elk Creek road can be accessed at the bottom of the neighborhood, "behind" the mailboxes. Exercise caution as this road is windy, isn't very wide in many places, and may be icy in winter months.
