A few more photos from Bob & Scott's hike yesterday...
Not long after their 5:50am start... heading up through the pine trees.
And Aspens.
Breaking above tree line to a beautiful sky & low clouds.
Buddies.
I remember this trail well from 2013 but it wasn't this cold (I was in shorts then).
It's a beautiful trail. Scott & Bob had some awesome clouds to enjoy!
Looking like real mountain men.
This area is called Devil's Playground.
Neat section when the trail crosses over the paved road. Also a bit weird as you say to yourself..."You mean we could have driven to the top?!" LOL
Nice shot.
Nearing the summit.
These 2 pics of icicles on the rocks tells me 1 thing: BRRRRRR!
Bob & Scott are tougher than those icicles...
VICTORY!
Pike's Peak Summit.
14,115 ft.
You Made It!
Bob & Scott
Bob and Scott should feel so proud of what they accomplished...driving to the top of Pikes Peak was a challenge for us...hiking we would not do!
ReplyDeleteI would like to do the drive to the top of Pike's Peak sometime. Or take the tram. Now that we've done the hike I we deserve a ride to the top. ;-) So cool that you and Charlie visited Pike's Peak too.
