| My 2nd fourteener. The clouds rolled in near the summit and we couldn't see more than 20 feet in any direction. Still need to go back for Torrey's. | |

| A fun training hike. I took my 59.5 years young father on his first 14er. Being from Pa he wasn't used to the altitude. By taking it slow with plenty of water we made it. My third visit to this top. | |

| Summited this one along with Torrey's the first time with my father. Great day. The second time was with a group of friends. Another great day! | |

| Knocked off this bad boy before heading over to Torreys. Great weather and great scenery the whole way. There were a few mountain goats running around at the pass between the two 14ers, I guess they really like this area. Not too difficult for 14ers, the only difficult part is driving up the very rough road to the trailhead. | |

| Extremly windy and icy, but well worth the veiw at the top. It is not nearly as icy if you decend to the saddle between Grays and Torreys. | ||

| Awesome climb! In the snow-reduced visibilty-great route-the classic Colorado Climb. It was my Dad's 73rd birthday-the climb was dedicated to him, Michelle & I called him from the top. We arrived at the trailhead around 8am to light snow, cold and foggy. Visibility was at the best times no more than a 1/8 mile but the pic's and maps we had showed us the way. The climb was very straight forward to about 13,500 when we came up to the south-ridge. Got progessively steeper and rockier and with the light snow made it a bit tricky in places. It certainly wasn't the Hillary Step but a challenge to say the least. Once over that obstacle it was just a matter of following the ridge to the top, nothing of consequence as far as difficulty. It took us 4+ hours for the climb to the top and 3+ down, every inch very worth while. The views coming down were fantastic as the clouds parted and opened up the valley below and ridges above. Michelle is a great climbing partner and soon to be my wife, nothing better in the world! I would recommend this route to anyone that likes to stay away from the crowds, we were the only ones climbing from the south side. | ||

| Our First 14er. Beautiful hike. We started out pretty early, so we didn't see to many people when we started, but as we began to go down the mountain, the swarms of people looked like ants invading the mountain. | ||

| A nice hike after climbing Torrey's. Because we started our hike at around noon on a Thursday, the mountain was not crowded, and we were the only people on the summit. The weather was nice and there were only a few patches of snow remaining on the ridge. | ||

| Came back to climb after summiting Torreys via Dead Dog Couloir in the spring without enough time to traverse to Grays. 3rd 14'er for Spencer the Mountain Dog, who couldn't figure out what to make of the mountain goats- he stopped, stared, and just wagged his tail enthusiastically- not even a bark! | |
