Colorado

My husband and I recently got back from vacation throughout Colorado. We left the kiddos with our parents and left for 9 glorious days! 
This hike up to the summit of Mt. Yale was the most exhausting hike I have ever completed. We didn't quite make summit-about 100 vertical feet shy. Weather was coming in and my husband(he has climbed 19) said no way we need to go back down!! I CRIED! ALL I WANTED WAS THAT SUMMIT! 
But, he was right and we made a smart decision because we did get hailed and rained on and the descent for me was brutal!!! BRUTAL!! Like no other running experience I've ever had! I am proud to say I am addicted! We will be back! This picture was taken at the saddle of this beautiful beast!
