#21 Mt. Colombia done! (14,073) it was substantially more difficult than it was intended to be due to us climbing too far up a loose steep gulley, but we made it.Tried for the Harvard Traverse as well but some viscous weather declined our ambitions and forced us too abort mission. We had to flee down a less than hospitable boulder field and into a random unknown Forrest. Turns out it was an old trailhead that was decicrated by malicious landslide many years ago. We had no choice but to bushwhack through miles of ravaged land filled with giant trees piles up that were ripped from the earth. This made for most unpleasant traveling... We wondered around lost and clueless for many hours. Finally we crossed a portion of the Colorado trail, and two hikers informed us that if we followed it for 8 miles we would find our vehicle. Turns out it was more like 12-15 miles but eventually we made it. We hiked from 4am - 7pm O_O
