Reply to comment by tweakybiff in Flatirons, Boulder Colorado (OC) [3024 × 4032] by tweakybiff

I left Colorado about a year ago. Is the hike still so crowded that it kinda feels artificial?

If you want peaceful nature, Chautauqua was never the answer. Beautiful but so crowded all the time.

Hiked the flatirons a few times when I lived in Boulder and I never experienced it to be very crowded.

It’s obviously more crowded than most other trails in the area, but for being right next to Boulder it was definitely less crowded than I would have imagined.

It’s like there’s a Black Friday sale at the top some days.

It was a Saturday, so there were some people there, but it didn't take away from the experience for me. There were a bunch of rock climbers too. I saw 2 people standing on the tippy top of one!
