On our way down with Mt Crestone in background. We made it down and Joshua was a little dehydrated we went to sleep early. I had phone reception throughout so had Judy and family praying for him. In the morning he was much better and we made the trip home. Next year we decided we will just go fishing a couple of days in the Jemez mts. only a couple of hours away from here. :)
Joshua walking down the mnt.
Joshua began to start feeling bad...So after we summitted we began right back down.
About halfway up the peak. It started to windy and chilly.
Just beginning our hike up Mt. Humbolt over 14,000 ft in elevation. It only took 8.5 hours to complete...Ha
Early morning shot with Crestone Peak in the background and the moon still up
