The trip to the top of Mount Evans was pretty cool /cold and could warrant recognition. The road up to the top was 14 miles long & winding with lots of hairpin bend and big drops. Standing on the peak we were 14,270 feet above sea level and one or two suffered with altitude sickness, including me. It was like I was on drugs.

I thought at times ithat we were filming for a version of Ice Road Truckers

Will put some more videos from Mount Evans later
