Maybe we should make that the two miles high blog.

Ackar and I set off today with the rest of my family to Georgetown Colorado. (They should've been happy with the one in Maryland) We got on a train and went to a silver mine, which kind of raised my expectations. But I was let down yet again. There was hardly in there, the place had been abandoned (by the miners) a long time ago, and...it was really cold and wet.

At least there weren't any rats. Got some good pictures from the train ride though.

The afternoon was much more entertaining. We went to the Continental Divide(11,990 ft, above sea level) which, for all of you who didn't know, decides which way the water runs off. If rain hits the east side of the continental divide, it winds up in the Mississippi River and eventually the Gulf of Mexico, whereas if it's on the west side, it ends up in the Pacific Ocean. I got bored and eventually hiked up one of the taller ridges with Ackar and got some nice pictures(of Ackar in the snow, which he really didn't like), as well as an elevation of about 13,000 ft. above sea level.

Even though the place was covered in snow, it wasn't that cold. Kind of weird, but awesome.

Tomorrow we're heading out for Colorado Springs...and Mata Nui is coming this time.
