This is a "semi-new" Page:

http://www.summitpost.org/mountain/rock ... flora.html

Mount Flora and Colorado Mines Peak were on the same page, but I seperated them.

Scott, FYI, on your Mt. Flora page, you have the elevation as 13,146 at the top info box, but on both the main page and the route page, in your text, you mention that the elevation is 12,132.

The high point/summit of Mt. Flora is the bump north of the point marked 13,132. This is noted in Garratt and Martin's CO 13er book. See here for more notes, maps, and where the 13,146 number came from:
