DENVER — Wildflower season is underway and the flowers are looking especially vibrant across Colorado. Sometimes life gets in the way of making the drive into Colorado’s high country. Luckily, there are plenty of places to enjoy the summer season within a few minutes of Denver. Some of these hikes are liable to get pretty busy on weekends. The best times to hit the trail are typically before 9 a.m. or after 3 p.m. Just make sure to check the 9NEWS forecast for summer storms. We want these public lands to be around for a long time.
