Back in Colorado!



Ok, not really, but we got your attention right! We´re still here in Argentina, but we did climb a peak called Cerro Colorado the other day. It was just outside San Martin de los Andes, and, well, it´s named after our home, so we had to climb it! The peak is just over 5,000 ft., which doesn´t sound like much. But, considering we gained nearly 3,000 feet in under two hours, it was a lot like climbing a 14er! The very summit is all dark red volcanic rock. It´s very striking, especially since not a single other mountain surrounding it looks the same. The view from the top looked out over two huge lakes, and the largest Volcano in the entire area.
