For an extended hike, go left at the top to do Bear Peak (2nd highest peak in Boulder) and then to Fern Way to make it a loop back to NCAR. Only adds about 1.5 miles but adds 1.5 hours. -

Absolutely beautiful and if you make it all the way up to the peak you will be rewarded. Lots of shade along this trail and where the river flows it is a very comfortable temperature.
