    Gosh! Not just fit but brave too! That view is incredible but my vertigo is kicking in and I can’t look any more.

  • Mar Silva replied

  • Lori Peters

    The view must be awesome from there. I knew it had to be over 9000 ft. I live at 7000 ft. beautiful, Mar.

  • Mar Silva replied

    Thanks my friend. This is actually one of the only times I got a little panicked because of the height. My pack was so heavy and the climb was so steep. I didn’t want to lose my balance , so crawled just a little :)

  • Lori Peters

    Lori Peters

    I have crawled myslf. the terrain here is very rugged. A lot of people climb here. I will see them straight up a rock wall. They are using rockclimbing equipment of course. No spider man stuff.

    What a view! My do you ever get worried that the piece of rock you’re walking on can slide any minute? Then again the beauty of the surrounding scene can push fears aside.
