Mt. Quandary
June 28, 2008
Saturday we got up early and headed for the summit of the 14,265 foot high Mt. Quandary. Arriving at the trail head around 6:30a it was apparent we were going to be behind a few dozen hikers who have already started towards the peak.
The trail starts out in the trees but pretty quickly they thin out and the rest of the trail is all rock.
Here we are nearing the hard part of the hike, the steep climb up to the snowy top.
Finally at the top we were greeted by a none-to-shy mountain goat that Kate posed with.
The views from the top were spectacular and Kate mentioned several times that this was her favorite hike that we’ve done so far. And here’s a few more photos from the trip.
UPDATE: Here’s a video taken from the summit.
