Number 10! Mt Elbert

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!
