19.4 Miles
Up and Around Copper Mountain
Honey dropped us off at a 7-11 in Silverthorne right by the bike path which kept us low and out of elevation and snow for the morning and we said our thank yous and goodbyes from a wonderful time at the farm.
The bike path went for 13-15 Miles through Silvertorne, Frisco and ended at Copper Mountain. We cruised along it looking up at snow capped mountains and changing aspens. We made our way through Frisco and had brunch at a tasty natural food store/deli. The walk from Frisco to Copper Mountain was along 70 but we then entered the mega-center of Copper Mountain. It was a ski town with all the amenities you could want..and it was all closed because its not ski season. The potential for lunch options was quickly forgotten and we jumped back onto the Colorado Trail/CDT and worked out way back up. There was patches of snow and it was quite chilly when the sun set at our nice flat campsite nestled in a valley.
