THIS MORNING PENNY, CANDY AND I STARTED OUT EARLY WITH HOPES OF SUMMITING BOTH SPENCER PEAK AT 13,087' AND SULTAN PEAK AT 13,368'. THE WEATHER FORECAST DID NOT LOOK TO BE IN OUR FAVOR TO TACKLE BOTH BUT WE STARTED OUR CROSS COUNTRY CLIMB UP INTO SPENCER BASIN AND FIGURED WE WOULD PLAY IT BY EAR. ONCE REACHING SPENCER BASIN AND AFTER CLIMBING THROUGH THE CHUTE, WE DECIDED TO HEAD DIRECTLY TO SULTAN . ALL THREE OF US MADE THE SUMMIT BUT WE DID SEE THE CLOUDS BREWING IN THE DISTANCE SO WE DECIDED TO FOREGO THE FINAL CLIMB TO SPENCER PEAK ON OUR RETURN. THE ALTERNATE MOXIE HIKE WAS ON THE COLORADO TRAIL BELOW US. SINCE ALL MOXIES OR I SHOULD SAY MOST CARRY RADIOS WE WERE ABLE TO ANNOUNCE OUR SUMMIT SUCCESS TO THEM. I'M SURE THEY WERE ALL BELOW ENJOYING LUNCH AND HAVING A FEW LAUGHS WHILE WE HIKED NONSTOP WITHOUT EVEN A LUNCH STOP FOR OVER 7 HOURS, CLIMBING OVER 3200' AND COVERING JUST OVER 8 MILES. THIS IS AN AMAZING HIKE WITH INCREDIBLE 360 DEGREES VIEWS THAT SHOULD BE ON EVERYONE'S BUCKET LIST TO DO AT LEAST ONCE.
