Evergreen, Colorado is named for the region's large population of conifers and old-growth trees. Thousands of acres of parkland are offered throughout the city and its surrounding region, which is located at an elevation of more than 7,220 feet. Popular outdoor recreation sites include Evergreen Lake, which was created in 1927 by the damming of nearby Bear Creek.
