Colorado 14ers: San Juan Range

13 days / 381 miles / 16 hours 2 minutes

"The San Juans contain 11 county summits and 13 fourteeners. The San Juans are less crowded than other ranges closer to the eastern slope's metropolitan areas. Many San Juan peaks carry a lot of snow into August. You should consider carrying an ice ax." - Chapter Six of "Colorado's Fourteeners: From Hikes to Climbs" by Gerry Roach
