Comments:

I hiked the trail up to Redcloud Peak and then traversed over to Sunshine Peak.  This trail involved a lot of miles, a lot of elevation gain, and a lot of scree.  Lots of loose gravel created dangerous spots for slips and falls, so trekking poles definitely helped maintain balance.  The views from the top were rewarding.  Good views of Handies Peak, Uncompahgre Peak, Matterhorn Peak, Weeterhorn Peak, Mt. Sneffels, and the Rio Grande Pyramid, just to name a few.  Glad to bag two more 14ers, making my running total 22 as of now.
