The Climb of Grays Peak
I took off from work late at night and drove on my truck to the Steven Gulch Trailhead. Got to the trailhead around 2 am and waited for an hour until I started going up. It was still dark when I reached the chilly summit of Torreys Peak 4,339 m (14,236 ft). I curled myself up behind some stones and waited for sunrise.
As soon as the sun came up I head down to the saddle and climbed up to Grays Peak summit 4,349 m (14,270 ft) .
I was about to go down when I saw Ed Viesturs coming up with more than hundred people behind him.
It was great to hang out a couple of minutes with Ed and to have a picture taken with him at the top. Images
