This is one of the most beautiful places in the USA and almost nobody knows about except the locals. Every time I've been there it was cold. I always had to wear a jacket at least. It's nice to see it can be warmer. LOL I know it's 10,800 feet but I hit the top of Mt. Evans (14,200) in Colorado before and it was 68 degrees. I've never even sniffed that here and i'm a Texan who has no business driving in ice or snow so I was always there in summer. Thanks for the vid.
I've added this to my "Must Do" list, it's so beautiful! I hope to find a great weekend to head up there, it's less than a 3 hour drive from where I live. Thank you for sharing :)
3 hours is not too bad! Totally worth the drive. It does get really snowy in the winters though and they do close the road so keep that in mind if you go later in the year. It would be a huge bummer to drive out there for nothing.
Great video man, I could feel the genuine excitement and it made me want to get back out and do some more hiking. Influencers doing it for the "hike likes" need to take note.
Better to just give them your contact info … if someone contacts the office you can do your good deed and ship it to original owner. If no one contacts them, then you have a selfie-stick and not a ranger (office.)
