2007 Mt. Bierstadt Hike

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.

One of the water crossings in the willow swamp.

Shadows over the low peaks towards Georgetown.

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

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.

Greg at the top of the "stepping stone" boulder scramble to the summit.

Over Guanella Pass.
