After Denver, we drove west on I-70 and made our way up the slopes to Mt. Evans via the highest paved road in the North America. We checked out the ruins of the Crest house (top) first. The elevation was impressive and we weren’t used to it, so hiking the 150 feet to the summit (bottom) was difficult.
