I'm a bit behind, but lots has been happening. On Sunday I climbed Bierstadt from Guanella pass.

It took me about 3 hours, round-trip. It was one of the easiest climbs I've had. Not much to say except that I beat the rain by about 20 minutes.

I also took my tripod with me and took some panorama shots from the summit. This was taken looking South and West.

Unfortunately I shot these with my crummy lens and there's some variation in tone that shows through in the stitching. But this gives you a general idea.

I also saw this little guy along the way. He's 3 months old and already climbing 14ers... Well, they said they had to carry him part of the way... They're going to have to break him of that habit soon.

I then dropped down the other side of Guanella Pass. There's some beautiful country back there - one of those places you can just imagine living 150 years ago when the land was untouched. If you're looking for a good place to camp, this is it. It's a bit busy due to it's relative proximity to Denver, but on a weekday I doubt it would be very crowded.

There's so many beautiful places to see and explore. So many things to take pictures of. In less than a week I'm off to Canada again. This time I'm gonna spend more time on the trails. Nothing quite like being surrounded by God's creation.

"Be still and know that I am God." - Psalm 46:10
