Most had significant electrical activity and we always try to be on our way down well before noon. I've climbed them all and am working on climbing all of them in winter. Glory! That is great. Which did you find the most challenging? Everyone asks that question. By standard routes maybe Pyramid, Wetterhorn, The Bells, Crestone Needle. I think rotted rock makes it more dangerous (hence "challenging"), it depends on what one considers a challenge. Did you know some people have run up 14 of them in less than 60 hours (virtually non stop) without using a car or bicycle? One guy is attempting to climb them all self powered. Amen! I noticed the various 14er crazes while we were there. I think it is a healthy passion. At least they are not killing their days arguing on usenet. I'm envious. Did you know of any USAF marathon runners stationed at the Academy while you were in the Springs? No. Didn't meet anyone from the Academy. |
