| BigCountry | Impulse buy Date Climbed: Jun 18, 2011 | |
| After riding 18 miles round trip to Golden and back on our bikes my wife and I decided to hike up Bergen. Had wanted to bag it for awhile, but since the hike is 9+ miles round trip I never had the opportunity...until the kids were out of town visiting the grandparents. The hike down seemed longer than the hike up. | |

| Finally I climbed to the summit of this easily accessible JeffCo peak after a small early autumn snow. Fantastic views of the Evans Batholith from the top | |

| theREALCarpeDM | easy, crowded hike Date Climbed: Jun 6, 2009 | |
| I've been up this a couple of times. It's a nice hike, but due to crowds not a real mountaineering adventure. It's more like a long dog-walking hike. Saw a couple of elk in the meadow near the parking lot. | |

| Steve Larson | From Lewis Ridge Rd. parking area Date Climbed: Apr 18, 2010 | |
| A pleasant spring walk with my friend Martha. We misread the map in our haste to get moving, and thought it was going to be about 7 miles R/T. Turned out to be more like 10. Not that it mattered much. I love the open space trails in this part of the foothills! | |

| Hiked with my son to the top while trying to keep out of the way of mountain bikers. The summit was filled with butterflies of all kinds. | |

| MountainHikerCO | Stage Coach Date Climbed: Jan 1, 2009 | |
| As Jamie pointed out this is a great hike for when the weather report discourages getting up higher. We started from Stage Coach parking area and did Meadow View / Bergen Peak Trail. There was packed down snow on much of the trail with a few icy spots. Some people were wearing YakTrax but we didn't put ours on. It was good to have poles. | |

| Sarah Simon | Meadow View / Bergen Peak / Too Long Trails Loop Date Climbed: Jan 1, 2009 | |
| I enjoyed this delightful New Years Day outing with Dave's CMC group. We completed a loop hike in plenty of snow (albeit packed down). The Too Long Trail is - well - too long. My Adult ADD (kidding...) kicked in and like a mule going back to the barn I justed wanted to reach the truck! Views of the Evans Group are knock-out. | |

| belexes | Bergen Peak Trail Date Climbed: May 4, 2008 | |
| I did a loop: I took the Sleepy S trail to the Meadow View Trail, then took the Bergen Peak Trail the rest of the way. There was still a lot of snow near the top. On the way down, I took the Too Long, Founders and Painters Pause trails to the parking lot. I looks like the mileage is about the same either way. | |

| Beautiful sunny Saturday in April. Some snow on the ground, but the temperatures were in the 70s. Nice views. Saw about 4 deer on the hike up. Started at the trailhead off of Stagecoach. | |
