Colorado Holiday Snaps


I have posted a gallery of photos from Colorado at some friends' request. I only took a pocket camera with me but point-and-shoot still works. Here are some of my impressions from CO for those that are interested.
Click here to be taken to the gallery. Once inside you can click on the first photo to enlarge and pan through them.

Nice pics. What Mountain is that you climbed (with the snow at the top)?
Mount Evans, 4349ms.
The highest paved road in North America dead-ends at its summit. I hiked it with Melissa on a Saturday, we could have done the hike in shorts and a t-shirt the weather was so nice. The weather was nice again on Sunday but when I went to bike the 51km climb on Monday it was a cloudy day and the rangers had to close the road 7k from the top due to snow and ice. I climbed 39k before having to turn around as the temperature had dropped too much. I only made it up to about 3250ms of elevation that day even though I would have had no trouble riding to the summit the day before.
