| Drove into the trailhead the night before and slept it the back of my Pathfinder. A family came to summit while I was up, the father was finishing the 14’ers and save it for last so he could have his family with him. Took lots of photos for them, very cool. | |

| Climbed up and down the West slopes. Fresh snow the night before, and another snowstorm caught us on the summit. Great fun !!! | |

| The bugs were terrible. Unfortunately, I had to camp on a little spit of land near the beaver ponds. I burnt alot of greens to keep the smoke going. A hot day. I saw my first moose the next day as I was hiking out. Pointed a guy in the right direction as I was leaving the summit. I'll be back later this year to do Oregon peak. | |

| I've climbed several San Juan peaks, but only this one had a true wilderness feel. Seeing a group of bull elk on a ridge silhouetted against the sunrise was the highlight and one of those wild moments of incontestable purity. | |

| This is probably one of my favorite 14ers. The La Garita mountains offer a solitude that is almost unmatched in the heavily traveled backcountry of Colorado. Hiking Party: Michael Booker Jennifer Booker Don Nalley Shiloh Billy Sarah Blinken | |

| One of the nicest hikes I've done in this state. This was my first time in the La Garitas and it lived up to all my expectations. I didn't see as much wildlife as I would have liked but the lack of people and the views more than made up for it. Took about 4 hours to reach the summit and then we took a leisurely pace on the way down. | |

| Myself and five others summitted at 10:50am. The weather was great. The scenery was awesome. Not too many snow fields left. But pretty busy since it was a holiday weekend. It was a great 14er to start off the season. We turned it into a backpacking trip, and backpacked in up to treeline, which made the summit day a quick trek. We started at 12:30pm on 2 July and reached camp at 3:30pm. And, it took us 2 hours to get to the summit.....back to the car at 3:45pm, just in time to drive the dirt roads before the storm hit. | |

| This was my first fourteener, almost ten years ago. As I recall, it as a beautiful hike. We encountered a thunderstorm on the way down, and before we could get below timberline, the electricity in the air and the thunder got pretty intense--good times. One could spend weeks exploring this area. | |

| Last of the Colorado fourteeners for me and Aaron. Cooked dinner on top. The mountain isn't very spectacular, especially for the San Juans. | |

| Wonderful weather. The road to get to the trailhead was a long ways from the highway. | |
