Climbing the Colorado 14ers

I have four friends that love climbing the 14ers (mountains at or above 14,000 feet) of Colorado!  Kathee finished all 54 several years back.  Major finished last year, Tom has two more to go and Matt has seven left.  Me??  Ha!  I like hiking in the mountains in the trees that open up to beautiful meadows filled with flowers and cascading waterfalls.  The only place I'll be near the Tundra is in my truck!

Matt paired his love of climbing with photography and a favorite past time he shared with his grandfather and the rest of his family.  It's a great story that Major King, news reporter for Denver Channel7 News compiled together to share.  Matt, Tom, Major's daughter Kayla, and myself are in this news story along with Matt sharing the history of how it all got started.  There's also a few spots with Major & Tom climbing as well.

Please take a few moments to watch this short clip and feel free to pass it on. 

Remember, it's not ALL about reaching the top of the mountain.  It's the journey along the way.  IT'S THE CLIMB!

Much love,
Robin
