All 55 in her first 13

It's 11pm and I'm making crepes with the leftover batter for tomorrow's breakfast. That pretty much sums up my summer so far - busy! 

But we're having loads of fun as well...
starting with Cayenne's final Colorado 14er on June 20th. That's 55 mountains higher than 14,000ft, before she turned 14.

You go, girl!



Shane and his son Keegan joined us for the big day.


That's Nicolas on the middle hump, and if you look reeeeally closely, you'll see Cayenne & Acacia climbing up the final push. They're about halfway up the part you can see.




Cayenne opened her first bottle of champagne on top of Handies Pk (14,058ft/4285m)...


... or actually it opened itself. As soon as the metal was off, poof! (see the cork?)


Whoopsy.



Yay Cay!

And thank you Nicolas for being her guide, supporter, encourager and companion.

  1. Congratulations to the four of you and specially to Cayenne for this accomplishment ! You can be proud : "baptizing" your mountain with champagne ! And you all must be crazy to enjoy climbing such pile of stones ! If only you had some mountain pastures with cows and flowers !
