Pikes Peak via the Cog.

I snuck two cans of beer up with me and as we got close to the summit I started getting really paranoid that they would explode. I didn't realize mild hypoxia can cause paranoia, but it does.

Dabs had just become a thing. My podna didn’t have a true dab rig but he basterdized his bong so it would work. Holy sheet. I lived one street over. I think it took me twenty minutes to drive home at 3am.

Sandia Peak adjacent to Albuquerque, 10,700 +/-.


Hard to believe that is actually higher above sea level than the Schilthorn in Switzerland that I have also been atop (twice), but it is.

Trail Ridge Road in Rocky Mountain National Park. I think it's somewhere around 12000ft at the highest.


Ditto and even in June it was 28 degrees and snowing with the road closed up top.
