Easy parking, tons of hikes ranging easy to difficult accessible from this trail head
I love visiting NCAR. Back in the day, I used to start my day with a drive up to NCAR to deliver parcels. What a jaw dropping drive, both up the mountain and again back down with the views of the eastern plains...to die for!!! I love coming back, everytime I visit Colorado.
Great gateway to other trails, or take the short weather trail with informative signage.
I enjoyed this hike quite a bit, especially after completing the crowded flat iron trail. We wanted to see some wildlife, so we headed toward skunk canyon via the mesa trail. Plenty of free parking here. Many different trails. Saw some of Boulder from above. Good for running as well. We didn't actually get to see much wildlife but it was still a good hike. #LetsGuide
