07_12_2009 - Dave hikes South Arapahoe Peak

The weather has finally stabilized a bit which means we can get outside and play without being hailed and rained on! This past weekend while I spent the day with Carol Kotchek, Dave hiked South Arapahoe Peak.

The Arapahoe Peaks (there is a North and a South Peak) are in the Indian Peak Wilderness area. South Arapahoe is 13,400' in elevation. North and South Arapaho Peak is home to the Arapaho Glacier which is the largest glacier in the Front Range. The water from this glacier is the main water source for the Boulder.

Dave hadn't hiked the peak for about ten years and found it really beautiful. No doubt all the rain this year led to the beautiful flowers he saw there. Enjoy the photos!
