Longs Peak Climb - Aug 9th - Loft Rout

Date: August 9, 2008
Difficulty: class 3 (scrambling)
Summit Elevation: 14,255ft
Trailhead Elevation: 9,400ft
Elevation Gain: 5,300ft
Round Trip Length: 13 mi

Every one who is up to the climb is invited. We only have so many seats in our van so if you want to get a ride up with us get in touch soon.

We have always wanted to do this climb, but were held back by the fact that it is not well marked. A real nice person at my dad's work who knows the rout has offered to guide a trip up this rout. It will be a challenge and is not for the faint of heart.

The RED line is the Loft Rout.
The PURPLE is the Keyhole Rout.
The BLUE is a class 4 variation.
YELLOW is a couloir for Skiing when covered with snow.

As a luxury house from France, louis vuitton traditionally loves to add several French words on the louis vuitton bags name. It may reflect a tiny aspect of the national language arrogance across the country for several centuries. So anything labeling on French costs 10 times more than it should be, such as the Embossed Leather . Etoile which means star in French is an uncommonly suitable name for the Embossed Patterns from LV 2009 fall and winter collection.
