That's me on top of Castle Peak. My 28th 14er. Great views all around, including the Maroon Bells, which I saw for the first time.

Next summer I will have to step it up and stop doing repeats so I can beat you to 55!

Good job. I failed at that peak last time (2008). I had running shoes on, Aspen had just had the first snow of the season, so I ran the mining road, but balked at the big snow field at the top (which people were skiing that day) and I couldn't see a different route that didn't have snow on it. D'oh!
That year I had slipped at a snowy Longs Peak Keyhole and really bruised myself and didn't run for over a month. A bit gun-shy.
Out of curiosity, did you do the snow field or some other route?
I did the standard route from 14ers.com. Not sure where the snow route is, since there is currently no snow up there.
