Evans, the Sawtooth, and Bierstadt. No surprise that we decided not to cross the Sawtooth and do both peaks on the same day.

Peak-Bagging Wiener Dog
|

Yes, someone brought her dachshund up a 14er. The owner said that the dog made it about 90% of the way on its own (believable, since much of the trail is relatively smooth), and only had to be carried up the stepping stone stretch below the peak.
Ridges and Valley

Evans and one of the ridges of Bierstadt, with a small, still-half-frozen mountain lake between.

Looking in the direction of Grays and Torreys just as we started to ascend. I don't think this is one or the other peak.

Back at the Saddle

Taking a break after returning to the saddle, before starting the terrifying descent past the Angry Marmot and through the unstable boulder fields and postholing snowfields.

Mt. Massive is appropriately named -- these are all lesser summits of what is regarded as one mountain.
