The climb was only an hour and a half to the top of Carpenter Peak. The trail was moderately steep and the summit is about 3.5 miles from where we parked the car today. Near the top we ran into Sharon and her husband, from my cycling class. Sharon just had both knees replaced in February and now she's walking to the top of this lovely peak near Denver. Modern medicine is remarkable.
There was a nice granite outcropping at the very summit. So I had to stand on it and pose for Nancy. We had a nice lunch and enjoyed the views of Denver and the front range.
In this photo I was trying to capture the white mountain top of Mt. Evans. Looks like all I got was the white top of Nancy and a couple of small clouds.
