Day 1 of 7 - Starting the trek into the mountains, gaining some altitude, and overcoming some hard challenges. All while being smitten by the beautiful landscape.

The beginning of two weeks in the Rockies. Overcoming the qualifier hike, funny things found at camp, and finding a long lost brother in town.

A short intro about the latest adventures of mine. Not leaving home this time, I don my backpack and get high… Up into the mountains that is.
