Another 14er completed

Today we hiked Mt. Sherman, one of the 14,000 ft peaks here in Colorado. It was cold and windy, but the sun was shining and the views certainly made it worth all of our hard work to get up to the summit.

This is the view from the saddle, about half way up.

Here is Andy just taking it all in...I think he was eyeing the summit.
We started down in the valley, and this was probably about 3/4 of the way up.
And finally to the summit!
After eating a few Snickers bars, we were ready to head back down. It looks nice and sunny up there, but man was it cold!

I spent the rest of the afternoon laying in the sun by the hot tub. Andy had enough energy for some tennis...that will have to wait until tomorrow for me!
