If things go according to plan, I’m about 3 weeks out from doing a little mountaineering. I’m going to take a Colorado vacation that will be half family, half goofing off in the mountains with a buddy. With respect to the second half, we don’t have too many firm plans, but it looks like we’re going to start with a climb of La Plata peak in the Sawatch range near Leadville. It has an elevation of 14,336, making it the 5th highest peak in Colorado.
It’s been awhile since I got some mountain time — last climbing I did was in Yosemite in 2003 — so I’m really looking forward to this.
