County Seat is a climbing area on Jeffco Open Space in Colorado, a few miles from the town of Evergreen. It sits close to several other outdoor spots, so it works well as a base for a day or longer of climbing, hiking, biking and camping. For comfortable weather, aim for late spring or early fall. Typical averages from the nearby Evergreen weather station put June highs around 76°F and September highs near 73°F, with July and August the warmest and wettest months. Tin Cup Hogback Park and Gateway Boulder are each about half a mile away. Box O' Rox Trail and Dakota Ridge RV Park are both about 0.8 miles off.
