Capital is spectacular, I might have to attempt a 2nd summit someday.

This was a great class 4 route, 1 of my favorites. Milwaukee / Pico Aislado traverse,, photos are the isolated one, Pico Aislado coming from Milwaukee.

Lindsay, Iron Nipple, and Huerfano from Huerfanito. I like this one because the close ridgeline is almost identical to the far one
