4X4 Tour of the Red Mountains

After a frightening experience (at least for me ;-)) of hanging out of an open jeep to go up the side of a mountain, we reached a couple of summits and took some pictures. We took a group picture at our last stop, Lake Como

Location of Lake Como using Google Earth, click on it and you can see where it is and the dark blue dots indicate part of our path.



I took quite a few pictures as we went up. The views were AWESOME.



We were able to see a lot of mechanical erosion, especially paths left behind by glaciation and avalanches, that have taken place on the mountains.
