From June 2021
On June 10th, we hiked up the popular Lily Mountain Trail, which is just down the road from the very popular Lily Lake Trail. The former is dog friendly and outside Rocky Mountain National Park; the latter is not.
The parking area is very limited. Essentially, it's just a small turnout near the six mile marker. The Lily Mountain Trail is a steep 3.7 mile in and out. Elevation gain is 1246 feet.
Callie let me lead the way until we got close to the summit.
The top was a bit of a scramble. No problem for Julia.
After the hike, we went to Rockcut Brewery in Estes Park for a well-deserved beer. We ran into a traffic jam just before arriving.
The outdoor patio was a place that invited lingering on a nice day.
