It's All Down Hill from Here
Today, Scarecrow checked in at the top of Gray's Peak - the highest point along the Continental Divide Trail. This marks the second 14er that Scarecrow and Jabba have hiked up and over. Earlier this week, he reached the top of Mt. Elbert, which is the HIGHEST of all the 14,000+ foot mountains in Colorado. Hiking Mt. Elbert was a side trip they took, as it was not officially on the trail. Gray's Peak is along the trail, in the Front Range, and is listed as the highest in this range.
