GoPro Hero Helmet Cam - Highlands Bowl Aspen A long hike at 12,000+ feet wasn't too easy for this Florida Boy, but the experience was amazing!!! Throw in some hurricane force freezing winds for good measure and you have yourself an adventure! Footage of the descent is not so great because everything fogged up. Just a fun little iMovie edit I did on the plane ride home! :-)

More info taken form HowtoSki.net: Access to Highland Bowl demands a 45-minute hike from the top of the Loges lift. The hike itself is a test of conditioning and endurance as it rises from 11675 feet to 12,382 feet.

In one or two places during the hike up, it narrows to a single track that's only a foot wide and drops off one side to the valley floor below. This portion of the hike requires you keep your head down, not think about what you are doing and put one foot in front of the other. But, like all great adventures, the hike to the top is well worth the climb. Once you are at the top, the vista is spectacular, with a 360-degree view of the surrounding peaks, including the breath-taking Maroon Bells.
