Trail 60 - Great Views from Eagle Wind Trail of Rabbit Mountain

One spring morning in 2017, Allie and I hiked the Rabbit Mountain trail. It was a beautiful hike. The trail itself was damaged, apparently due to a combination of overuse and recent rains. As such, there were more than a few spots that required special navigation to avoid losing a shoe to the mud.  The trail itself is a fairly straightforward loop without connectors or spurs.  

Rabbit Mountain's trail, called Eagle Wind Trail, is Hike #60 mentioned in 60 Hikes within 60 Miles from Denver and Boulder.  It's a great location for open views of the Rocky Mountains, the foothills and the Great Plains beyond.



The day we visited was temperate with a clear sky. It was early Spring, so the scenery had not yet turned green with vibrate flowers. We had a clear view of Long's Peak for most of the hike. However, I'm not sure I would make the drive from Denver area back to this particular trail.

Moon, Venus and Regulus having a party in the morning sky

What I saw on the morning of Sept 19 thru my window. I went outside to snap this shoot. My trusty Pixel was able to reasonably capture the sight with very little effort.
