Did a great "ridge-run" over the weekend. Anyone else have any really cool pics from "altitude"? I love the "coming in for a landing" look out of the windsheild!

Alec - the pic of the H2 on the edge with the snow capped mountains in the distance should be used in a million Hummer ads! INCREDIBLE! Where was it taken? I really should take a camera with me when I go out - but I always end up with nothing but my pathetic cell phone pics. Thanks for ALL your pics - they are stunning.

CP,

You need to get to Colorado some time. One of the best trips I ever had was backpacking in CO. Hiked up over the continental divide, then stayed at a 100+ year old cabin up there for four days doing day packs. The sights were incredible. The hike would probably kill me now though http://www.elcova.com/infopop/emoticons/icon_frown.gif

I know, I have never been further west than Columbus, OH, except when I went to Vegas last November. I saw some of the landscape from the plane but this will be my first time experiencing the western outdoors.http://www.elcova.com/infopop/emoticons/icon_biggrin.gif

I am really excited, ever since my trip to Vegas, I'm not deathly scared of planes any more and want to plan more trips. I will still cry and be a snotty heavy-breathing crybaby freak for the first and last 10 minutes or so but I am still excited otherwise. Colorado looks so beautiful, I would love to spend a week or so there and check stuff out.
