Where we're staying is at 8750 ft and we'll be doing several hikes well above 10,000. Probably two or three "fourteeners", saving LaPlata, my favorite, for late in the week as it's a tough one. Makes Attic Window at GFM look like a stroll in the park :) Mount Elbert is the tallest in Colorado but it's a pretty easy hike. In the past we've done that on our first day, without acclimation and no problems, so we might do that one again as a warm-up for the serious stuff ahead. I just discovered that one of my musician friends is living in Colorado Springs, so we might try to get together with her some time. The social calendar is filling up already... -- PDML Pentax-Discuss Mail List PDML@pdml.net http://pdml.net/mailman/listinfo/pdml_pdml.net
