August 31 Grays and Torreys




Last year a friend of mine introduced me to two ladies from Aspen. We spent the day hiking Mt Bierstadt. It was a great achievement because it was the first peak over 14 000ft I had hiked. Today we got together again and we conquered both Grays and Torreys Peaks. (14 270 and 14 267ft high) (pic) The weather was fantastic, the hike was enjoyable and we reached both summits before noon. The hike was especially good because I had the company of Rocky - our new dog.(pic) The trail was full of hikers but I have come to expect so many people and it is fun seeing the different groups all working towards a common goal. I cannot wait until next years hike!
