Mt. Evans from the Guanella Pass Trailhead.  I'm not going to post any "getting there" info here because we got lost.  We went around Mt. Spaulding, then up Mt. Spaulding then descended Mt. Spaulding and then climbed Evans.  Althought the route we chose (made up) was long, I believe that it was an easier ascent than what is described In Roach''s Colorado 14'er book.  The ascent was more gradual and made for a long but easy hike.  For details, E-mail me.
