Rocky Mountain National Park
A few friends and I hiked to the peak of two mountains (Grays and Torreys) in Rocky Mountain National Park. Both were my first and second 14′ners. Even though my lungs have adjusted to the base altitude, I’ve been in Colorado for 5 weeks, the hike was a lot harder than I thought. Here are the photos!

Though we are smiling, none of us can breathe.
