Coyote Ridge

Experience the foothills meeting the plains at this beautiful site. Look for mule deer and coyotes, and sometimes mountain lions, bears and rattlesnakes. Rabbitbrush, mountain mahogany and three-leaf sumac provide habitat for songbirds, lizards, rabbits, deer mice and foxes. The approximately 600-foot rise in elevation makes for nice views of the Front Range and eastern plains as well as the Cheyenne Ridge to the north. At the top, views to the west are gorgeous.
