The mean temperature depression thus determined is ~8.6 +0.7/−0.9 ◦C where the uncertainties account for those inherent in the glacier reconstructions, in model parameters (e.g., melt factors), and possible modest changes in LGM precipitation. Associated equilibrium-line altitudes (ELAs) exhibit a statistically significant directional dependency being lower toward the north and east. Under the assumption that regional temperature change was uniform, required changes in precipitation vary systematically—also exhibit- ing a directional dependency coinciding with that in ELAs—and indicate increases (over modern) occurred on the eastern side of the massif while decreases occurred on the western side.

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.

Essential Question: What part has Pikes Peak played in the history, geography and literature of Colorado. 5. Contextual Zebulon Montgomery Pike first wrote about the mountain peak he saw in the distance Paragraph in November 1806. At that time he believed that the peak was too rugged and high to be climbed by any human being. Less than 50 years later, Pikes Peak had become a major tourist attraction – a distinction that continues today.
