I mainly went to Arapaho National Forest to summit my first 14er! It was definitely a risk so for anyone looking to summit a 14er, I highly recommend later in the summer as the weather won't be as volatile. Otherwise, Denver as a city was a blast if you love beer and nature! Fun breweries are all throughout the city, as well as since pretty neat coffee shops!

Denver is safe as long as you use common sense. Don’t walk alone at night. Be aware of your surroundings. There are certain areas to avoid and homelessness is a big problem, but overall, I feel safe living here!
