Looking up from the valley floor the 13,000 and 14,000 foot peaks can seem impossible to climb, especially if you’ve not participated in this kind of a hike before.  However with so many options what you will find is that there is a peak out there that matches up with your skill level, fitness.  The West Spanish Peak is a fabulous mix of approachability and difficulty and In 2019 Mandy Crockett and the Human Resources Team introduced a group of SLV Health Staff.   This particular hike provides a simple drive up, a beautiful hike up through the woods up to tree-line, and a challenging ascent.  My observation is that there is a little something for all skill/fitness levels.  Morey Aldridge and Zach Masterson recapped the hike with IWT host A.J. Webb.  The three give their response and reaction to the hike.  The trio represent a variety of hiking backgrounds and their respective approaches to getting outdoors, having fun, and staying safe; Morey even brought her children with her.Here are the times and topics:
