Fig. 1Rolling alpine hills of the Flat Tops
A high plateau of rolling alpine hills and timber. Wide country, not sharp peaks — the quieter roof of the state.
From Ripple Creek Overlook the plateau runs like a green ocean. Trappers Lake sits in a burn scar of spruce. The Flat Tops are where Colorado goes to be wide instead of steep.
