SHOT 7/17/08 9:44:06 AM - Hiking on Apex Trail in Golden, Co. (part of Jefferson County Open Space) with Tanner. Various butterflies on wildflowers along the way. Due to the proximity of Denver, this is a popular trail. Although it can be crowded on weekends and evenings during the week, it still provides a great getaway from the city. The park has a variety of trails. You'll be able to ride ridges overlooking the city, through a dense forest, or through a secluded valley. This valley, known as Apex Gulch was actually one of the original wagon trails that lead up to Central City. The Apex Trail system is popular with hikers and mountain bikers as well..(Photo by Marc Piscotty / © 2008)
