Angler Mtn Above Silverthorne 28Jun20

Kala and I usually hike into the Gore but today we crossed the street! We climbed through many amazing varieties of wildflowers, some thoughtfully marked, up Angler Mtn near the residences on the east side of Rt 9 above Silverthorne. It provided us a great quick 4.5mi/1200ft hike which afforded spectacular views of Summit Co stuff like the Dillon Rez, 10 Mile Range, Gore Range, Copper Mtn, Breckenridge, Mt Quandry and more. We got a great look our our hometown of Silverthorne basically from directly across from DD's place. We weren't sure about this hike, and the climb just reached the Ptarmigan trail, not the top ridgeline (without another 1200ft climb full bushwhacking), but the views and the flowers were awesome. Recommended.
