| This is a picture of the lake almost at the top of the mountain (you can see the peak in the upper corner). So it is at about 12500 ft. |
 |
| We placed flippers at the top of the mountain, sort of like a flag. Notice the fog. It keep us from getting to the peak for most of the morning. |
 |
| We faced many obstacles on the trail. One of them was crossing a stream; but we found some trees to help. |
 |
| To get to the mountain, we had to hike past the sand dunes, Sand Dunes National Park |
 |
| I have other pictures, but they will have to be for another time. Here is a picture of me, standing be a sign reading "Sangre de Christo" on the trail to the peak. Notice how large the backpack is. =) |
