Climbers Rope to the summit of Little Bear Peak

This dicey section of the trail to the summit of Little Bear Peak has a rope to assist climbers. Little bear peak is one of the most difficult 14,000' peaks in Colorado. It is a goal of many Coloradans to climb all 58 of the state's "14ers". This image is named Belly of the Beast and appears in my project entitled "Poems for Colorado".
