Silver Lake Trail at Brighton

Silver Lake has been on my list for so long, but we just never get to each year before the snow comes. This year we made it a priority and I'm so glad we did. We went on a Sunday, which I never recommend doing by the way. We usually try to get out during the week to avoid crowds and now I remember why. But, even though it was a weekend and the most incredibly beautiful day, it was still worth it, and the crowds really weren't that bad.

We had ages 2-64 and this really was the perfect trail for our group. It was short enough that it was easy for everyone and we finished with a picnic lakeside. 

We played some football, saw a ton of deer and other wild animals, and enjoyed the beautiful views.
