Quandary Peak is a nice 14er that is very close to Breck. Mt Sherman is easy to get to from Breck too. It's an easy one to climb and good if you have a range of different hiking abilities. That said, Quandary isn't bad either. Get Gerry Roach's guide to the 14ers. It's a great book and will help you pick a route that you'll enjoy.

Forgot about Mt. Sherman. That is a good one in the area and doesn't take quite as long since you can drive up a fair amount. Was my first 14er and the altitude kicked my ass pretty good so I was pretty much moving at the pace with the random foreign tourists while my friends charged up much quicker. Depending on the season you can have some fun on the way down siding down the snowbank on your ass.
