You should really get that camera fixed. All of your waterfall shots are blurry.

Wow Firehaus, your El Capitan is stunning.

That is El Capitan, no?

CoGirl, I really like your panoramas too. Just gorgeous. I'm saddened to hear you are done with 14'ers though.

The view of Rocky Mountain National Park as seen from atop Longs Peak (14,259 ft above sea level).

15 miles and 14 hrs 25 minutes round trip, with 5,000+ feet of elevation gain from trailhead to summit.

Began climbing at 11:35 at night, arrived on the summit at 6:50 am, back to the car at 14:00 pm.

Thank you! My body isn't sad though. Ten was more than enough. Those are long days and my body just said enough after finishing Missouri Mountain last July. I listened.

But not to worry, there's still a TON of easier 13'ers, 12'ers and 11'ers to be climbed with plenty of lake hikes at sunrise, sunset and with the night sky above and the accompanying photography to come.

Ready for July so I can go play around Yankee Boy Basin, the Dallas Divide, the San Juans and Sangre De Cristos.

Playing amongst mountains, you go girl!

I hope one day to get up to the top of one of those and to see what you see. Best I have done so far is skiing, but they give me a lift.

Audubon is a good training hike to get yourself in shape. It's easy enough to do by yourself but it will work your legs good and let your lungs acclimate to altitude. Audubon was my first solo climb. Twin Sisters in RMNP is also a good training hike. James Peak is another (St. Mary's Glacier area). You could alternate between all three of those to really build yourself up.

Summer of 2016 I did seven 14'ers and four 13'ers in 63 days. It was crazy.

Started off with Sniktau the week before Memorial Day weekend, Quandary on Memorial Day weekend, then James Peak, Audubon, Evans/Spaulding from Summit Lake combo, Greys/Torreys combo in the same day, Belford/Oxford combo with a failed attempt of Missouri for a trifecta (ran off by thunderstorms and lightning) and finally Longs Peak concluding on July 25th.

Oh, they can freeze liquid when they have too.
