The cake donut I had in the rest area/gift shop thing was good, scenery was nice (or what little I saw). I didn't care so much for the light headed and nauseous feeling I got from being at that altitude. The cog ride down was miserable. |

On our way down now. Temp. was in the low thirties with winds around fifteen to twenty. There was very little snow on the ground, but it started to sleet while we were there. I'm on AT&t and traveling with a two year old. So no mountain climbing on this trip.
