    Mesa Trail is not as extreme as the description makes it sound. If you begin at the Eldorado trailhead off of highway 93 & Eldo Spgs Dr., it is mostly open meadow and will be pretty hot and exposed in the summer, which is better for spring and fall when you want to warm up a bit by the sun. Hike as much or as little of it as you'd like. This area is good for older people who need less steep terrain and for running. If you approach the trail from Chautauqua, it is a short ascent through the open meadow, then you get into the forest and can take the Mesa trail accross the front of the foothills without much more elevation gain. It is one of the most mellow portions of Boulder's hiking system, very beautiful, and lots of options to add on additional portions of trail to your hike.

    Lots of dogs and people, so if your dogs don't get along with others then don't bring them. Dog s**t everywhere. Thanks d**kheads. Learn to be responsible before society has to take care of you. Overall, the trail is nice. Sumac thickets near the start of the trail, some ponderosa pines along the hillsides, lots of trail options and offshoots.

    Great hike for a couple from Wisconsin! Made it to the saddle and back in 5 hours. What a great time! Challenging, but totally worth it.

    This is a very nice little Park located outside of Denver where a lot of people like to go jog bicycle and even ride horses. Has beautiful views of the Front Range and a large part of the trail system could actually be navigated from a wheelchair. My only negative is the fact that all of a sudden all of these little parks in and around Colorado have now gone to anywhere from a $5 to as much as a $15 day-use fee,, undermining my whole idea of a park and maybe having a donation box instead. Colorado has built up over a Billion dollars in surplus money from Recreational(marijuana) usage why not spend part of that on your park system.
