Traver Peak 13,852'

Today we set out for another attempt to Traver Peak and then, to Clinton Peak. It was a nice day as usual. Our friend Dave and his dog Okie joined us. This is Dave and Okie in the distance, and I am behind them. Another pic of Dave and the beautiful scenery.
In the center of this peak is Traver Peak. You can't see Clinton Peak. It is hidden to the right.
One of the surrounding mountains.
Here's a cute pic of Okie.
Shawn took this from the top of Traver Peak looking down.
This is Democrat Peak. We climbed it last year. I thought the ridges looked really neat here.
Quandary Peak in the back to the right. Another one we did last year.
Here we are at the top with Lincoln peak behind us (another one we did last year)!
Shawn went on to climb Clinton Peak while Jolie, Dave, Okie and I went back down. Shawn has a goal of climbing all the Colorado Centennials. I do not, so he went on and we met up with him later. He did a good job!

This was a nice little hike with lots of side trails and pretty views.
