Also, take a walk around this section of Colfax Ave... lots of cool shops to explore.

Cute Mtn town with 1850's jail, musium coffee house, hotel and many original buildings that seem to be built right into the Mtn.

“Everybody drinks coffee, it’s this big connector and nobody knows where it comes from,” Birhanemaskel said. “The Ethiopian coffee ceremony is where everyone sits together and you roast beans in the clay pot. They’re like really strong espresso shots, the smoothest coffee you will ever have.”
The coffee-based business plan shifted when in 2015 Jessie Quote about how this became an activist coffee shop. "Hernandez was killed by police near the Whittier neighborhood. After the mourners were dissuaded from gathering at another cafe in the area, Birhanemaskel welcomed them with bottomless coffee. A void was filled and “the activist coffee shop” was born."

Road only open Memorial day to Labor day ish. Its impassable once it starts to snow up there. It will be a lot colder at the top even in summer so take layers and drink vitamin C to combat altitude sickness.
