Here’s what rush hour in Evergreen, CO can look like.  As is fitting, this prolific elk herd is making its way over the road towards Elk Meadow Open Space.  Elk Meadow is one of several terrific open space trail systems that can be found in Evergreen, CO.  Additionally, Evergreen is the town in which the mountain search and rescue team, for which Todd and I both volunteer, is located.  As a result, we spend a great deal of time in this little mountain town.  You’re not far from Denver but you feel worlds away from the hustle and bustle of the city.  (The one photo I couldn’t resist because a baby in the herd stopped in the middle of traffic to nurse.)
