60 Hikes within 60 miles: Denver and Boulder” by Kim Lipker
“Glendale Farm Trail sits in a region called Happy Canyon. So I think of this as a happy hike. It’s a great first-time hike for kids or novices because of the short length and easy navigation. There is no shade, so the midsummer heat can be unbearable. Douglas County open Space does an amazing job on these new trails…”

I forgot my Garmin, so these are Fitbit stats.
This was an easy hike located of the I-25 just before you get into the city. A great spot to stretch your legs as you get back from a road trip. There is also an off-leash dog park next door. There are some prairie dogs running around so I can’t wail to take Tequila and Cholo so we can release the hounds.
