The Crestones in the shadow of Humboldt Peak
Humboldt Peak Summit on a cloudy day.
One of many rock formations around the summit of Humboldt Peak. Such playgrounds can easily be avoided, but are minimally exposed and composed of solid rock.
Looking south from the summit, Sangre De Cristo Range.
A stunning view of Crestone Needle (left) and Crestone Peak (right), with morning alpenglow above the shadow of Humboldt Peak.
At the windy false summit at 13,800.
A daring hiker sits on the NE edge of the summit. This part of the summit need not be climbed and is easily avoidable for those afraid of heights.
