My friend Bruce and I climbed Mt. Bierstadt with a group from meetup.com. My camera was totally out of batteries, so these photos are all from Bruce and some of the captions are stolen from his Facebook album.

A look down the sawtooth trail towards Mt. Evans, how's your balance?
The largest willow bog in the state of Colorado. As measured by the State Bog Volume Assesment Specialist, no doubt.
The best snowball snow ever found in late July, imho.
Me, at 14,060' or is that now 14,065'1.5''...
I win!
