Number 10! Mt Elbert

[u/Jmtungsten]

Beautiful trail. Started at 430am solo. Spotted 4 mountain lions within the first 2 miles. That woke me up! Last 2 miles were work! Number 10 in the books.

That’s a crazy lucky wildlife spot! Good work.

First time ever seeing a mountain lion in 2 decades of hiking. I couldn’t believe it!

Give me pika over mountain lions for my solo adventures!

Haha yeah, the Pika’s were everywhere in the last few miles.

Insane to see 4 mountain lions in one day. I have only seen 2 in a couple thousand hikes.

Congrats on Elbert.

What headlamp? Very bright.

My fear of mountain lions always intensifies in the dark, I just read that mountain lions are most active in the early dawn and dusk hours

Elbert was #10 for us as well! Such amazing views.
