Day 2.

Good day that has taken an interesting turn. Got to see the sunrise shortly after 6 am mountain time, then off for our first hike on the Shrine Pass trail near Copper Mountain. The views were stunning at the ridge of the pass and we enjoyed every moment. The altitude was noticeable for all of us. Brady started complaining of a headache once back at the van and it only got worse as we spent the afternoon in Breckenridge. We knew something was afoot when he would not finish his Dr. Pepper...low and behold, our little dude has a case of altitude sickness. He is a trooper but is pretty miserable tonight. Hoping some time in Idaho Springs tomorrow will help, as it is 1500 ft lower than where we are staying. I suppose we were due but it is not fun seeing your guy laid so low and feeling so bad about it. Tomorrow will be a better day.
