Today we climbed Mt. Sniktau from Loveland Pass. It was a beautiful 59 degrees with a brisk wind pushing us up the hill. While there is still a great deal of snow left in the mountains, the ridges on this climb were relatively snow free, just because of the wind. It made for a nice hike.
The scenery from over 13,000 ft. is terrific. We tried to name as many of the nearby mountains as we could, but there are so many!
At the top we enjoyed some special views and special fellowship. We took some time to share things that have been on our minds and hearts and encouraged each other in our walk with Jesus.
There is something special about being on the summit of a high mountain. You can see for miles around in every direction. Colorado! We are so blessed to be near the red rock walls, cascading waterfalls, lofty peaks, and alpine meadows all bedecked with wildflowers and beautiful views. It's like being in God's garden.
When we returned to our cars we celebrated Chris's birthday! Nothing like a great dessert after a long hike in the mountains!
Of course, there is that moment when everyone stops talking! This community stuff is serious business you know. We have work to do.
