Begin in Denver at Union Station where you will meet your guide and begin your small group tour. Experience a breathtaking drive up one of Colorado's highest mountain peaks. See 2 glacial lakes, Echo Lake at 10,600 ft and Summit Lake at 12,800ft on a short walk.
Then, begin the spectacular drive up to the top of Mount Blue Sky. Take another optional short walk to the summit from the parking lot to witness wildflowers, pristine protected wilderness, mountain goats, big horn sheep, marmots, and 360-degree views.
After your summit experience, enjoy shopping and lunch on your own in Idaho Springs, a real old western, historic gold mining town. Then, make your way out of the Rocky Mountains and back to Denver in time for dinner.
