Azure and I went on a 'lil weekend trip a couple weekends ago and ever since I've been so busy and tired! Oh well, life happens! I'm back and what better way to be back than with an acclimation post about our acclimation hike?

We set out from our hotel to wander around a bit. The elevation at our hotel was just over 6.5k ft, and we had designs to reach higher elevation than that during our trip.

It was a bit of work to find the trail, but once we did we enjoyed walking along and seeing the sunset. I neglected to take many photos, sadly. I may need to start hiking with a proper camera.

Today's hike had some incredible views, but it was a bit more work than we realized! Azure had done it before but she didn't remember it being as much climbing.

I didn't take a ton of pictures to start. But the trail followed along some ranches at the start. It was a really cool area that I would really love to spend more time exploring.

After a lot of climbing and finally reaching the top we enjoyed lunch handing out with some Bristlecone Pine trees. The one in my pictures is likely over 3000 years old judging by it's size.

I think next time we head out this way it may be with a tent!
