North Table Mountain Hike

North Table Mountain is a mesa on the eastern flank of the Front Range of the Rocky Mountains of North America. The 6,555-foot (1,998 m) mesa summit is located in North Table Mountain Park. This park has no shade and tends to get really hot. But it gives you a very nice walk, and if you have a bike, most people bike up this mountain too! This mountain was formed by lava about 60 million years ago and now you are able to enjoy panoramic views and plus a view down at the town below. This is a perfect place for a hike near Denver if you have limited time on your hands and need some fresh air. The surroundings are really peaceful as not many tourists comes here, but this mountain park is huge that it has approx 20kms of trials all around it. Do plan your trip when visiting here, as there are places to visit in the west, south and east of the mesa. This park is open all year round but do take note that south side of the mesa has some preservation going on at times. Also, do not go off track because there might be rattles snakes around the area and other creatures around. A tip when coming to Denver, come during summer and not winter. Because winter here is often below zero and you will face heavy snow which most of the time be spent in your home. #hiking #hike #mountains #naturalwonders #mountain #hot #denver #colorado #america #views #panoramic #panoramicviews #awesomepic #summervacation #adventure

I've been to Yangshuo several times before but I'd never climbed the TV tower hill until now. It was really worth it! I didn't know exactly where the trail started but I had a good idea of where it should be (you can see the trail snaking up the mountain from the town.) I headed in that direction and found myself in a maze of alleys behind the market. I wasn't sure I'd be able to find my way through these narrow streets and then saw 上山--> painted on a wall. Perfect! I followed a few more of these ad hoc signs and soon found myself at the bottom of stone steps leading out of the village and up the slope. It's a typical Chinese trail: steep and all stairs. It's not a long climb though. At the top there's a compound with the TV towers in it; the old man who lives there will take 5 kuai (WeChat accepted) to come inside and admire the view. I think he also sells drinks. I asked him if he climbs up there every day and he laughed and said no he stays in the house there. What a view to wake up to every morning! You can see how the town of Yangshuo stretches out like the arms of an octopus in between the karst hills, radiating away from the area around 西街 West Street. Definitely recommended if you've got an hour or two to spend and want the best overhead view of Yangshuo. If it's too much climbing for you, go to the hill in People's Park, which is t#awesomepic pped by a small pagoda and overlooks the town centre. #urbanexplorer #yangshuo #guilin #guangxi #china #southchina #karst #mountain #mountains #hiking #view #views #nofilter #sakura #cherryblossoms #桂林 #阳朔 #广西 #中国 #爬山 #漂亮 #springholiday#travelinspiration#unforgettableexperiences#awesomepic#hiking#naturalwonders#springblossoms#urbanexplorer
