A Powder Day on Huerfano – the video
I caught a beautiful day on Huerfano Peak, 13,828 ft. Only four peaks left! We’re...
“Huerfano” Peak – 13,828 ft.
Technincally speaking, the mountain’s official name is Unnamed 13828. Lying directly north of the 14er Mount Lindsey, and at the head of Huerfano Creek, some refer to this Sangre de Cristo summit as Huerfano Peak.
Mount Adams – 13,931 ft.
Mount Adams rises above the town of Crestone, in a region of the Sangre de Cristos that contain some of the most impressive mountains in the state. Many climbers and peak baggers are familiar with the local 14ers— the Crestones and Kit Carson— but if you’re heading to the area with skiing in mind, Mount Adams should be at the top of your list.
Red Mountain – 13,908 ft.
We began our spring 2014 Centennial Skiers season with Red Mountain.
We’re lucky that the mountains in Colorado are so accessible. For the most part, the high summits in the state offer year-round climbing and skiing to anyone who wishes to do so.
Columbia Point – 13,980 ft.
We added three more checkmarks to the list by skiing Columbia Point on Sunday, and with it wrapped up an incredibly successful Centennial Skiers road trip.
California Peak – 13,849 ft.
The Centennial Skiers RV road trip continues. After a successful few days in the Sawatch range,
the Spyder Land yacht set sail south for the Sangres. Our first stop was California Peak, a massive mountain in the southern part of the range near the 14ers Blanca and Lindsey.
Mount Ouray – The Devil’s Armchair
Ouray impressed us all. Accessing the mountain was straightforward and the ski lines from the summit down into the Devil’s Armchair were long and sustained. The Bristlecone Forest alone is worth a visit.
