Mt. Evans is the closest 14er to Denver and reaches 14,264 ft in elevation - 154 ft
higher than Pikes Peak. This view is taken from Echo Lake just days before the Mt. Evans Scenic Byway was reopened for the 2010 summer season.
The Mt Evans Scenic Byway climbs more then 7,000 ft in just 28 miles. The upper section is the highest paved higway in North America. At the
summit you will enjoy the big picture - the entire Front Range and Continental Divide sprawls at your feet.
