I will be climbing Kilimanjaro on Aug 15th (in about a month). I am planning a weekend trip to Colorado Aug 5 - &th to do a couple of hikes to get a little bit if expereince with higher altitude. Being from Dallas, we don't have any mountains or anything close to high altitude. I hope someone might help me with some suggestions for the hikes. I am flying into Denver that Friday evening and flying back out late Sunday evening (9 pm departure). Am willing to drive to locations that can be accessed by a rental car.
I won't be able to bring camping gear so I was thinking 2 different loops or in/outs. Not knowing the area I am getting overwhelmed with all the internet articles.
Thanks for any input!
