Hike over from Gray's

Hike over after Grays on the standard route. Gray's was good, but Torrey's was very icy, though less windy. Great hike.

Windy!

Great group of people. Gusty wind up to 60 mph made for an exciting hike. Also climbed Grays.

Kelso Ridge!

Climbed Kelso Ridge on the 4th of July - third time on this route and fifth on the mountain. It's a great route for sure, especially on a very popular mountain!

twofer

Tagged it after Grays Peak. Thunder started just after I left the summit around noon and I was back in my car two miles down the road from the trailhead at 210 pm. Fast but very fun ascent.

Snowy, May 2012

Combined with Grays. Was on snow almost the whole time - did it with micro spikes and poles. People were up there with face masks, helmets, axes, crampons. Others were trying with tennis shoes. Gotta love it. Did it hungover and ended up getting altitude sickness and was the most light headed I've ever been. Some guy gave me ibuprofen at the bottom but I didn't even try to drive my car for a good 45 minutes once I got down.
