Do NOT go to the amphitheater. Type in Red Rocks Trading Post - 17900 Trading Post Road, Morrison, CO 80465. If you don’t see an adobe building with Trading Post written on the sign, you’re in the wrong spot. Free parking is available at this address. -there is a bit of construction going on right now as it is off season. You can still access the parking lot.
Pack plenty of water and any personal medications. The altitude can get the best of all of us if we aren’t hydrated!
Cannabis use is not allowed. For safety reasons, if you show up high, you will not be allowed to participate in the hike. Enjoy when the hike is done!
