MT PRINCETON........check

Well I accomplished my first 14er and it was HARD. We did Mt Princeton in the Collegiate Peaks and it was beautiful, but not a very fun hike. Almost the entire hike consisted of boulders. Im not talking about these boulders that are firmly stuck in the ground and easy to walk on. I am talking about small pebbles....huge lose rocks and magnificant boulders. It was crazy. Once we were on the top, we noticed a huge storm coming so we started down, and go rained on.......rain + loose boulders = no bueno! IT WAS SUPER SCARY! I made it up in 4 hours and my husband did it in 2 hrs 45 minutes. Very hard but rewarding. Our next one is setup for next month. Cant wait. If you have not tried it I would highly recommend making the trip over to Buena Vista to check out the mountain!
