Just a short drive from Denver, CO is the Mt. Evans Scenic Byway, which climbs to 14,130 feet, making it the highest paved road in North America. The road is open seasonally, and goes through five different climate zones on its way to the top of Mt. Evans.
Note: As of September 2023 the mountain has been renamed Mt. Blue Sky.
Along the way, the road visits the Mt. Goliath Nature Center, Summit Lake Park (the highest city park in the United States), and the top of Mt. Evans (almost), where you'll find the ruins of the Crest House, once the highest business in the country.
We also see some of the wildlife found in the Rocky Mountains on this trip, including deer, pika, bighorn sheep, and mountain goats.
This video was filmed in August 2022 and despite it still being summer, we also got to experience some mountain weather.
