I just woke up, 3:30am
Going to climb Mt. Massive today, gotta get up this early so I can be at the trailhead by 7. Gotta beat out the afternoon thunderstorms, nothing worse than a blizzard at 14,400 feet ASL

Thanks man, I thought you'd enjoy this! I'll post up some of my pictures from other mtns I've done around here. I did the tallest peak in the state last summer so working on #2 today is pretty cool still.
Kind of a special day for me, if I reach the summit it's my 14th 14er. That's like a golden birthday and a golden shower all in one

Hope ya have a good trip man. I was heavy into rock climbing in the early and mid nineties. I miss that shit. I was so hooked on it at one time that I'd get up early enough most days to do a little solo for a couple of hours at a local spot before going to work.
I still have all of my gear with the exception of one rope. If I never do any of my other many adventure sports from my past I at least plan on getting back into rock climbing and surfing someday.

That's a big climb! But wait - there's a mountain called Mt. Massive?!? I don't climb mountains too often, but I love the feeling of accomplishment when I do

Yeah real steep, 4,000 vertical feet over 4 miles. But really it's like 2 miles of flat as you get to the base and then 2,000 feet/mile for the last two miles until you finish at 14,421 feet. Left our car at 7:30 and summited by 10:30 so a pretty good pace, but we went slow because one of our climb members was a little hungover
It's so hard to hike fast above like 12k feet. Plus it's all steep and evil but damn it's fun. One more down on my goal of eventually climbing every 14er in Colorado!

That's awesome dude. I've never done it myself, but since the air is so thin, I imagine it would be harder to breath the higher you get, right? That's fuckin badass. You grab any pics man?

Its easier to breathe at higher altitudes if you smoke cigs (possibly weed too )

I read a textbook in a outdoor ed / mountaneering / backpacking class, that people that smoke can tolerate a noticably higher altitude probably due to them being used to inhaling lower levels of oxygen

After smoking weed every second day or so for a while I started having trouble breathing when exercising. I climbed Mt Warning and I could feel my lungs weren't like they used to be and decided to cut WAY down on smoking. I'll have a joint like once a month now and make a canasoup or canasmoothie instead of smoking

Yep, there's an exponential decrease in air density as you go up in altitude. At 14,000 feet I'm only breathing 40% as much air as you folk at sea-level. You literally get winded walking on level ground, it's really quite a trip.
For example, this is the final stretch to the summit for my climb yesterday;
Looks relatively tame, no? Well in reality you're gasping for air and stopping to catch your breath even on that stuff, so the part of the climb where it's a 40% grade is just fucking killer. I'm addicted

That's crazy dude. Definitely seems like a very physically taxing activity, but really fun and thrilling at the same time. Closest mountains to me are like 4-6 hours away, but they're nowhere near as tall as those I don't think. Feel free to post any more pics you might have laying around.
