Waterfall Scrambling at Berthoud Falls – Arapaho and Roosevelt National Forests – Berthoud Falls, Colorado – 06/30/2012

Located along Highway 40, just north-ish of Empire, Colorado, and only about 8 miles off of Interstate 70, Berthoud Falls in the Arapaho-Roosevelt National Forests is INCREDIBLE!

An absolutely beautiful set of cascades, rolling down the rocky mountainside, and so easily accessible by all ages and abilities!

Parking is just beneath the falls, and you really could spend some time hiking, scrambling, enjoying the flowers and leaves, and just taking in the absolute awe of Rocky Mountain Life at 9,800 feet elevation!

Even if you are just passing through on Interstate 70, do yourself this favor!

Take Exit 232, and head up Hwy 40W about 8.6 miles!

Pack a picnic lunch and make a day of it, if you can!

But, at the very least, plan on stopping for as long as you are able!

Yes! It’s GORGEOUS!
