12,000 ft. Above sea level Front range from Colorado Springs To Denver	My friend George "Buddy" capturing a picture of Colorado Springs on High	Spectacular view of Colorado Spring with rain clouds in the distance

Same view with slightly different angle	Devin walking on rocks at the Reservoir at 12,000 ft.	View from Mount Baldwin of Colorado Springs

Front Range looking North with another lower altitude Reservoir	George pondering the glory of the kingdoms of the Earth	You cannot see Pikes Peak from where we were taking photos, but in this picture, it would be to the left behind one of Baldwin's peaks

George catching his breathe and getting a picture of Colorado Springs	George standing on man-made water diverters from the reservoir, looking to the greatness of God's mountains	Walking to get a good picture of the Colorado Springs

What an incredible view	Very cool rock formation on Mt Baldwin (better known by 4x4ers as Mt Baldy)	Devin near top of Mt Baldwin, climbing on the rocks


Cool rock formation after the cloudy skies cleared	Interesting rock formations on Mt. Baldy	View looking South East

Horse head Mt. driftwood? Anyway cool picture of sun bleached wood taking by Devin	Microwave Radio tower taken on another planet? No trees above 12,000 ft	View is deceiving! We hiked to peak on other side, and it is MUCH further then it looks!

Just going to cross the dam before hike to the two peaks. We never could get to a place to see Pikes Peak, but it should be in the distance behind the left peak.	Picture opposite of previous picture from right side of picture.	As we walked across the dam.

View through to Colorado Springs	Same ,but slightly different	The turn that takes you to the top!

Looking North East towards Colorado Springs	George "Buddy" Sucking in the thin air and enjoying the AWESOME views!	Almost looks like an alien landscape

Great Rock formation to the left	I could live up here... if there was more air!	George in awe on God's great handy work!

deep in thought or lost because of lack of air?	Cool Rocks Dude!	The glory of all the kingdoms of the world and all there splendor

Orchestrating the mountains to sing?	Or is he measuring the width of the mountains?	Should I go swimming or not!?!

View of Cheyenne Mountain	Even mountains were below us	Erich (me) catching my breath after a long hike

JErich is sitting on top of the world!	Cool trees.	Notice mountain flower and rock in forground, makes an interesting contrast

Hiking along trying to collect O2.	We didn't go there!	Interesting little purple flowers.

Neat dead, bleached out trees.	Cooool!	Centaur sticking out of the rock (centaur-half man half beast)

I told you that hike was longer than it looked! I took the other picture (where I said it was much further then it looked ) from where that road/ trail meets the dam (slightly left center of picture).	top HOME Erich's Place Devin's Place mitzi's Place
