Maroon Bells traverse-south to north  Sucess!

Traverse from South to North Maroon Bell free solo. Very fun climbing!!! Monstrous peaks with the elevation rise. Amazing views of them from the lake, too.

A Long Time Coming  Sucess!

Had wanted to give this peak a try for several years. This year it finally worked out. We had great weather, and only two other people on the mountain.

Standard Route  Sucess!

A decent scramble. Sleeping Sexton later that day made the trip a lot more of a challenge.

Last of the Elk 14ers  Sucess!

Started out from the TH @ 5.16 with Faith & Rich. The closer one gets the more reasonable the route (SE ridge; standard) looks. Summited 11.31; :58 from the traverse/bottom of the 2nd gully to the summit. Summited @ 11.31. Clouds all over but none too threatening. Left summit @ 12.33. Down by 17.31. Tremendous views, esp. of Maroon (duh), & Capitol & Snowmass. Loved the way the route went from hiking to steep hiking to scrambling to the steepest climbing on the ridge crest to the summit- classic! Wonderful day on an extremely enjoyable route on a classic peak. Missed you at the summit, bro- there will be others!

Favorite 14er  Sucess!

A great day with goat escort from base to summit. Good to return after getting snowed off in late September.

Standard NE route  Sucess!

A long and very difficult climb! Ranked or not, this is a challenging climb worthy of any serious mountaineer. We waited out a passing storm, making a 14-hour day. No route description can do justice to the complexity of this mountain.

4th classic traverse  Sucess!

I think n maroon has the hardest standard route of any CO 14er. little bear capitol blah blah, n maroon has many more class 4 sections. did the traverse unroped but every other party climbing only the N peak brought a rope. the traverse is definitely classic, with a lot of options...(a far) second only to blanca traverse in quality
