  Look, if you're not climbing, you're just... walking. And we're not about just walking . The Front Range has peaks that’ll make you feel like the ultimate “hiking queen” – think of it as the training grounds for your own Mean Girl moment, only in nature. 1. Know Your Limits, Darling You don’t have to be an expert. Just like Cady Heron had to learn to be cool, you’ll learn how to summit. Choose a trail that matches your fitness level – no one expects you to tackle Everest on day one. 2. Pack Smart You’re not going on a lunch break. Pack essentials like water, snacks, layers (the weather here is more unpredictable than a Regina George mood swing), and a first-aid kit. 3. Go Early The early bird catches the... best parking spot and the best view, duh. Beat the crowds to enjoy the hike in peace – just you and the mountains, no “Plastics” to bother you.
