Cool pictures! Now I see why our military does their high elevation training here in Colorado. It looks really similar.

Here are some pictures I took hiking Grizzly Peak in Nov. 2006. 13,427 ft.

Trip 005 Spring 2012 Afghanistan



069 – New uniform of the day...







070 – Way more comfy than ABUs.







071 – Great breakfast.







072 - So that is the pooper washer machine. Not sure how to work it though.







073/074 - If this is how ya wake up in Spain, I can like Spain.











075 - Love this hotel.







076 - Shoulda brought the swimmin' pants.







077 - Well, if you don't speak Spanish, this is how ya know where the booze is at.







078 – Makin’ our way downtown.







079 - They pay me for this?







080 – No wonder C5's always "break" here.







081 – Desert stop number 1 complete and ready to ride after a quick fix. They can't all be fun all the time, so karma made up for it with a pile of long days and multiple stops with a jet that for some reason wanted to see how well I knew what I was doing.







082/83/84/85/86 - Pretty tall mountains for us being at 34k ft.























087 - A favorite shot of the trip was a good friend of mine riding in another bird heading the opposite direction 2000 feet above.







088 - Even a cloudy day is beautiful on the other side.
