Solo ascent of Mt Sneffels after the storms cleared. I started my climb up the road from the lower trailhead at 10,600ft. The upper trailhead is at 12,400ft and only the most outfitted Jeeps or RZRs could reach that point.

From there it is a very steep 1.2 mile climb up 1,700ft on a class 3 route to the peak (think about a steeper version of echo canyon at altitude), with one little crux about 100ft shy of the summit. It is every bit of awesome as it sounds!
