Mountain Goats of Mt EvansThursday June 18: Golden, Colorado (just west of Denver). We are in Clear Creek City Park N39° 45.197' W105° 13.193'. The campground is located on the south side of 10th street at the end of the road. Clear Creek City Campground is one of the nicest (location wise) campgrounds you can stay in (our opinion). located on Clear Creek 3-blocks from downtown Golden. They have paved interior roads with small backin sites (mature trees are so wonderful); 50-amps, water and sewer, $28.91 per-night 303-278-1437. There is a 2-week max stay before you have to leave the park and they do not take reservations. We drove out Clear Creek Canyon Road (US-6) from Golden, Colorado to Idaho, Springs on our exciting drive on Mt. Evans. There is another travel log covering the exciting drive to the summit of Mt. Evans and one covering Summit Lake on Mt Evans.
Even in the summer snow covers much of Mt Evans
