mt. elbert summit // july 11, 2015

scoping out the campsite!

camped at 10,000 feet

Elbert from the dirt road by our campsite

We headed out around 3:30am to make sure we could summit before afternoon thunderstorms rolled in.

the world comes alive

somewhere a bit after this, my leg started cramping in pain horribly. I realized I had not had a banana in weeks. Then along comes a hiker with a squashed banana at the bottom of his bag. The Lord provides! I stretched it out and powered through.

there she is...

first time seeing a succulent in it's natural habitat!

beware the false summit

what a sight...

victorious!

no words

this summit was brought to you by the humble banana.

Katie's friend brought the banana suit... amazing, right?
