Mount Oxford, Colorado 4,314 metres (14,153 feet)

I made it to the top of Mount Oxford a day or two after the season's first major snowfall. At the time it was late summer (2nd week of September) yet much of the trail was snow covered over 3,600 metres. Obviously snow can make climbing or hiking that much more difficult - especially at higher altitudes!

Here's my personal web page about climbing in general:
