From Berthoud Pass
Beautiful day - except for the wind. Climbed with Haliku and another friend who left us to get some turns in while we climbed. The views are great and Flora gives enough of a different perspective to reward you for the additional work.

7/7/13 - A quick climb with Peakbug from Berthoud Pass before heading over to Flora.

Second time up this pair, climbed en route to Eva on a breezy and sometimes snowy December day. The Continental Divide Trail was in good shape between the peaks, only about 6" of snow and easy to follow through the windblown tundra.

Flora from Berthoud
Should've brought an extra liter of water - could've gotten Eva and Parry while I was up there. Maybe next time...

Mines and Flora, Berthoud Pass
Solo climb, 4.0 hours round trip. Cold, with moderate wind, light snow and sleet. Good scenery when the clouds part. Good conditioning climb. Didn't need snowshoes much above treeline. My first November climb; November's better than May!

Berthoud Pass
Hiked both Colorado Mines and Flora just after Colorado's first snow. Cloudy on top and the only views were from the saddles. The top of the clouds were only about 100 feet above the peak. Windy and cold. My first thirteener in the snow.
Gurlyclimber and I went up these two peaks together. Great early season "warm up" climb. Hardly any snow above treeline, the trail was easy to follow and mostly clear all the way from Colo Mines to Flora.

Berthoud to BancroftThis is a cool traverse on mellow terrain from Berthoud Pass. Combine it with a car shuttle and you can do quite the ridge run!
