Emerald Peak #96

Atop Emerald, Italian phrasebook in hand.

The wedding has finally arrived.

In the last free days before family and friends began descending on Aspen for our big weekend, Christy and I headed into the woods to recharge the batteries. A secondary goal of the last minute escape was to tag the summit of Emerald Peak, 13,904 feet, Christy’s 96th summit of the 100 tallest peaks in Colorado. Only four peaks remain- Gladstone, Clinton, Silverheels and Horseshoe- for her to complete the list.

The week leading up to the wedding was exactly as I’ve always heard– a whirlwind of events, family, friends and emotions– it has been truly amazing. At times overwhelming and completely exhausting, I am excited for it to be done yet have been thoroughly enjoying the whole thing. It’s been a unique experience for us. So tomorrow we’ll be married. It’s going to be awesome but even better is what comes next– the honeymoon. We’re off the the Italian Dolomites on Monday!

We’ll be back in a couple of weeks. Arrivederci!

    We had a terrific time at your wedding and hope you have a wonderful time on your honeymoon. You got out of Colorado just before the snow arrived…9 inches in Evergreen on Monday.
    Cheers.

    Thanks everyone- it took a few days to properly ‘unwind’ but I think we’re there, six days later. Cortina’s awesome, we’ve done a few via ferrata’s already and have some more climbing to come. It’s a cool place.
