    My family and I (3 children ages 12,10 and 8) want to backpack for 3 nights from Golden, Colorado from Oct 23-26th. Looking for a 3 – 4 mile hike in an area that is not too difficult and where the weather is a little warmer. Willing to drive several hours. Any suggestions?

    Thanks!
    Meg

    Thanks for the suggestions Richard!

    We have been to 3 of your 4 suggestions…was thinking of a trip outside the immediate area…perhaps further south? Any other suggestions?

    Thanks!
