First MountainThis was my very first summit. It was so cloudy we couldn't see more than 100 feet or so in every direction the entire hike.

WatkinsA little too much road and airplane noise on this quick summit, but views and flowers compensate. Beggars can't be choosers.

Sun in, snow outSubmitted in warm sunny weather. Descended in near white-out but was close to car when visibility dropped to ~100 feet.

Perfect 1/2 day altitude runDefinately a 13-fun trip out. Better than a trail run on the Front Range

Great DayReally warm day for end of November. But, as usual here, the wind was blowing hard and I had to climb below the ridge crest.

A little windy, DRY.With Dad and Erin. Winter doesn't look very promising yet. I bet almost a hundred people climbed Sniktau today. Silly!

Nice day on the DivideThis is a nice trip over several 13ers, starting from Loveland Pass, I went over Cupid to Grizzly and than back to Sniktau. My plann to go for Torreys and Grays didn't work due to stormy weather.

Easy 13erI was bored so I did this round trip from my house in Lakewood in 3 hours 40 minutes.....always a little rough starting at 11,900 but this is a very easy hike with nice views.
