Great video of the climb. Myself and three of my friends tackled Crestone Peak in August of 2010 as well. It was a great climb, but it completly wore us out. We didn't get to climb the Needle, but I hope to go back someday and bag that one. Headed to the Chicago Basin to climb the 4 there is August.

Hey I live in Westcliffe at the base of the Sangres there. I've always thought about climbing the Crestones. Are you Guys pretty experienced climbers? Any Advice?

@Scatheairsoft What a great place to live! No, my brother and I aren't experienced at all. Before these I had only climbed two 14ers. We're both in pretty good shape but flew in from sea level and were VERY slow out there. It took us 5 hours to hike to S. Colony Lake, 8 hrs to climb the Needle, and 11 to climb Crestone Peak. I would say physical fitness and endurance would be the best preparation. Also reading the info on 14ers.com to be familiar w the routes as they can be tough to follow
