Cielo Vista Ranch Costilla County, Colorado M.Ailing: 3794-C Highway
Cielo Vista Ranch Costilla County, Colorado 254-897-7872 M.ailing: 3794-C Highway 67 West Glen Rose, Texas 76043 Welcome to Cielo Vista Ranch. We are happy to share with you the experience of seeing the world from the top of Culebra Peak. Please help us to maintain the mountain in its current undisturbed condition. The Colorado Fourteeners Initiative has made several suggestions that will ensure that the mountain remains beautiful for future generations to enjoy. We recommend that either the Ridge Route or the Roach Route be used for your assent and the Talus Route be used for your descent. Thank you for your cooperation. Please be safe and have an enjoyable day.

Unlike any other Fourteener in Colorado, hiking impacts are largely absent - Culebra is essentially "untrailed". In order to preserve its pristine condition, please follow these climbing guidelines: 1. Plan ahead and Prepare. A dehydrated climber scurrying down the mountain to escape a storm is likely to cause unnecessary damage to fragile alpine tundra. 2. Disperse while hiking. -

Crestone Peak … and a Self Rescue!
Crestone Peak … and a Self Rescue! Exposure: Summit Elev.: 14,294 feet Trailhead Elev.: 9,900 feet Elevation Gain: 5,700 feet starting at upper 4wd trailhead 3850 feet starting at S. Colony Lake camp Roundtrip: 14 miles starting at upper 4wd TH (9,900) 5 miles from S. Colony Lake camp Climbers: Rick Crandall, Rick Peckham 8/15/2015 Crestone Peak, or “The Peak” as known among many climbers, is one of the “double-black diamond” 14ers for climbers. It is located in the Sangre de Cristo range near to the town of Crestone. It and its companion fourteener, Crestone Needle were the last of all the fourteeners to be scaled back in the 1920’s. This remote and rugged mountain was once thought impossible to climb. The name comes from the famous “crete du coq” (cocks comb) on the Italian side of the Matterhorn which was anglicized to Crestone. (From Fourteen Thousand Feet, by John L. Jerome Hart, June, 1925) The easiest route is not the shortest or most direct. 800 feet of elevation must be lost and regained over Broken Hand Pass, which is a 1500’ climb from the South Colony Lake, and then another 2,000 feet must be climbed up the sustained Red Couloir to the summit approach. All climbing is rated at least Class 3. Considerable climbing experience is recommended before attempting this formidable mountain. Crestone Peak – a magnificent mountain. We had plenty of warnings about this mountain, including from Mountain Rescue as you see in the unfolding story. “Crestone Peak is one of the more dangerous fourteener climbs in Colorado; accidents occur often in the Crestones, some caused by falls and others by lightning (a daily summer occurrence in the Sangre de Cristos).” From Summit Post: Adding to the difficulty of the climb is getting there. -

Wild Connections Conservation Plan for the Pike & San Isabel National Forests Chapter 5 – Complexes: Area-Specific Management Recommendations This section contains our detailed, area-specific proposal utilizing the theme based approach to land management. As an organizational tool, this proposal divides the Pike-San Isabel National Forest into eleven separate Complexes, based on geo-physical characteristics of the land such as mountain ranges, parklands, or canyon systems. Each complex narrative provides details and justifications for our management recommendations for specific areas. In order to emphasize the larger landscape and connectivity of these lands with the ecoregion, commentary on relationships to adjacent non-Forest lands are also included. Evaluations of ecological value across public and private lands are used throughout this chapter. The Colorado Natural Heritage Programs rates the biodiversity of Potential Conservation Areas (PCAs) as General Biodiversity, Moderate, High, Very High, and Outranking Significance. The Nature Conservancy assesses the conservation value of its Conservation Blueprint areas as Low, Moderately Low, Moderate, Moderately High and High. The Southern Rockies Ecosystem Project's Wildlands Network Vision recommends land use designations of Core Wilderness, Core Agency, Low and Moderate Compatible Use, and Wildlife Linkages. Detailed explanations are available from the respective organizations. Complexes – Summary List by Watershed Table 5.1: Summary of WCCP Complexes Watershed Complex Ranger District -

Photo credit Dean Waits. and Sam Laird, Bobbi Leavens and Charlie the Pooch. Photo credit Dean For April the snow was still a few feet deep near Tennessee Pass Waits. as it covered all but the top of one of the several remaining Coke PPG 100th Anniversary Hike to Barr Camp ovens. Yes, it’s been a great snow year for the Sawatch and Mosquito Ranges as explained by Eric Hunter, leader of these adventurous Pikes Peak Group trekkers. It was still cool and the snow relatively firm on this beautiful blue bird sky day, later warming into the 50’s thus softening the snow for this 8-mile jaunt and creating an anticipation for the cold beer and food later. The trail we hiked along is loaded with history and lots of current- day activity. In the 1880’s the Denver, Rio Grande & Western trains chugged along this roadbed to get over the pass and later through a tunnel.
