An airdrop of snickers bars from a single-prop plane is all I would have authorized.

The lowest point in Colorado is the Arkansas River at 3,315 feet above sea level.

Don't tell that to the Brit potheads.

They'll want to conquer that mountain next.

Actually it’s a Laney for the line on board their ships sailing ships in the 1700 Jeep and contractions early. (Oh my God you wouldn’t believe what the talk to text does!)

Actually, .the term is “limey” to describe the practice of sailors consuming limes to ward off scurvy on long voyages. Yet another odd thought from the archives...

.......four walkers got stuck on top of the 3,209ft Scafell Pike......

ROTFLMAO!!!!!!

FYI: The town of Alpine, Texas has an elevation of 4,475 feet (1,364 meters), and the surrounding mountain peaks are over a mile high.

We have a small mountain -Camelback in Scottsdale. It’s not very high but every few weeks someone requires rescue. Mostly tourists hiking in flip flops or a bad fall. It’s the tourists who go off on the trail in the flip flops I have an issue with. Occasionally someone will die from an accident. It can have some rough parts on the trail but it is mostly a very tame hike. It is just over 2,700 feet.

Shameless plug for a friend; a great place to stay a mile and a half downhill if they want wade upstream too the Colorado border. https://www.facebook.com/trailcitybb/

Wow that sure is high.

It must have been the combination of the weed and the extreme altitude.

Our house sits at 4,200 feet with 14,000 foot mountains towering over us.

Not even that. A kilometer is about 3,281 feet.

On top of the mountain? Easy to get down. Just start running in any direction and you will lose altitude.

Been there, done that.
I was seventeen, partying with my friends in an area by Clear Creek Canyon about 30 miles west of Denver around October in 1986.
Someone heard something and yelled for us to turn off the Metallica.
There was screaming coming from the mountain to the south.
We all looked everywhere, and someone saw flashing up the mountain.
Someone was wasted, and flicking their lighters for help.
Myself and a few others went across the river and started climbing up to save them.
One of our group got nailed by a falling boulder.
Everyone was safe after, but it took me about 24 hours to recover from crossing a Colorado river in October.
BRRRR!!!
