About two weeks ago, I was backpacking in Colorado for three weeks through out state. I went through Hail storm, rain storm, thunder storm, and snow and sprained my ankle on divide and hit rib cage on boulder after a complete white out on the mountain (or Fog) .....overall it was crazy adventure and only carrying my basic set up because of weight; I was carrying around 65lb pack....Anyways here are the result of my crazy trip in Colorado. Enjoy!

I admire your spunk for undertaking such a trek. Wish I had thought of it 40 years ago.

Anyway, you got some good shots and they will bring back the memories of this adventure when you are old and gray.
