From a different view.

It really isn't that much more difficult than hiking around the Hollywood Hills. [roll]

It's all in the grind, Sizemore. Can't be too fine, can't be too coarse. This, my friend, is a science. I mean you're looking at the guy that believed all the commercials. You know, about the "be all you can be." I made coffee through Desert Storm. I made coffee through Panama while everyone else got to fight, got to be a Ranger.

I do know the pilot.  (Not me this time)

This is a mountain just outside of Aspen which seems to have an unnatural attraction for dumbasses that are way out of their league.  We pull at least 15 - 20 people off this mountain alone every summer.  Total rescues every year off the Maroon Bells is over 100.  Several deaths every summer.
Somehow...I'm not surprised.

FWIW, my dad & I were among the dumbasses who got in trouble up there, circa 1974. I was just barely a teenager, he was probably pretty hypothermic (I didn't yet know what that was), coming over the pass that's probably just outside the right-hand frame of the photo.  We were lucky to walk out under our own steam.

Man, I have fond memories of that backpacking trip!  :)

Ducati is the pretty girl that can't walk in heels without stumbling. I still love her.

It's just wet stone and concrete. So maybe not the grippiest surface, but not super slick either.
