The views at the top of Mount Elbert were incredible. The air was special. The sounds were unique. The satisfaction of the energy exerted to get there was fulfilling.
Then again, I could say the same about three quarters of the way up when we stopped to drink some water and borrow some sunblock from another climber.
Then again, I could say the same about half way up when we paused to look around and decide if we wanted to go the other half or just turn around.
Then again, I could say the same about a quarter of the way up when we talked through some water streams and had a beer on a small bridge.
Then again, I could say the same about driving into the parking lot of the park when we could look up and only see part of the mountain.
…. You see where I’m going with this. We don’t need to be at the top of the mountain to have a top of the mountain moment.
