Hiking – Boulder Saint Nick Rambler. Sanitas, Red Rocks, Dakota Ridge at a regenerative pace.

8:00a  396 Linden, Boulder, CO 

There is no building at this address, this is just where all of the on-shoulder parking is.  For those familiar, this is just past the crosswalk at 4th and Linden.

Please self organize any carpools

Route In general regenerative. Regenerate = put some effort in, then relax and recover.  We will start with an initial effort up Sanitas and will cover 1,200' in ~ 1.25hr.  We'll have a nice stretch on the summit.  

The descent down Sanitas takes its own effort.  The subsequent hike up to Red Rocks and then along the Dakota Ridge are relatively flat or moderate inclines and offer opportunities for active recovery, conversation and reflection.  

We will take 5 minutes in the sun at Red Rocks in silence.  For the hike back we will spend some time in silence, then share as desired.
