Climbing Mt Elbert, Colorado |
On 26 June 2009, Eric Hodge and I reached the summit of Mt Elbert (14,433 feet / 4,399 metres) – the highest mountain in Colorado, the second highest peak in the "lower 48" states of the USA, and the third highest of the 50 state highpoints. Mt Elbert was the third US state highpoint that Eric climbed, and my sixth state highpoint. |
