 The Colonel on Crestone Peak (or fun with a bucket of fried chicken)   

Had a great day in the Crestones as we summited Crestone Peak, but had to bail on the traverse to the Needle due to route-finding problems near the Black Gendarme.

However, we were took our good friend Colonel Sanders to the summit, where we enjoyed some extra crispy!!!
