Bierstadt Mtn

Kath- here's how i celebrated your bday for you, i hiked my first 14er (in winter)!! Audrey and i drove up Guanella pass from Boulder after the conference, did this hike, then went and stayed with a friend in Frisco. The hike was only 6 miles round trip but the altitude kicked my butt (not surprising i guess since the highest thing around fairbanks is probably ~ 800 ft), so it was one of the hardest hikes i've ever done. but the views were worth it...
