Conundrum Peak 14,060'

We just finished Snowmass mountain one day ago, and now, we are off to Condundrum peak! This is looking above from where we started. Since the bridge below (just below center). That is where we started. There is a 4WD road that goes all the way to 12,800'. But that would be cheating - plus, you really risk damaging your car. There are some good areas, and really not so good areas.
Pretty waterfalls!


Apparently another 4wd road starts here.

Road hiking is not very excited.


Now the good stuff. See the trail in the snow. That is where we are going. There is sink hole/lake below. So, we need to stay clear of that.

This is Castle Peak. We did this one a few years ago.

So, here we go. Kim and I are on our way. See us on the snow trail....
This is looking down what we just came up from the top.
Here is the rocky ridge we still have to go up to get to Conundrum.
Castle Peak again.
Views from the top!
Here we are!!
Castle Peak in the background.
Heading back. This is the one river crossing we had to make.
Until next time!
