Hiked with a group

Me and my best friend, Liesl, will be doing this challenge in a few different trips! Last challenge, we did 6 mountains in 4 days in Arizona, and we knew we couldn’t do that in Colorado. Our first trip to CO we hiked two mountains, with our first mountain being Mount Elbert! What a FANTASTICALLY AMAZING HIKE!!! WOW!!! The hike easily is now my most favorite hike I’ve ever done! The hike itself was challenging with a couple false peaks that completely broke our hearts, BUT being at the peak by ourselves was so amazing!
