First 14er

Jason, Grant and Kyle headed out on an adventure over Labor Day weekend. Jason has really wanted to make special memories with the boys, and he has personally wanted to climb a 14er.  So, he took the two boys and headed out on a Friday after work.  They slept in the truck in a friend's driveway in Creede that evening, explored the town in the morning, and headed out early afternoon to hike partially up, camp overnight, summit and return home the next day. They hiked the San Luis peak at 14, 014.


Creede is known for being an old mining town.





Parked and ready to begin!




Just to the right of Kyle's head down the hill is where they ended up camping. Jason said this first part of the hike was the absolute worst and they camped at the first site they found. 

They filtered water from the stream and cooked like regular campers - no hotdogs and smores here, folks!



Trying to figure it all out!


















Back at the parking area!!!
