| Notes: | Used snowshoes for climb. |
| Facts: | Mount Quandary is the 13th highest peak in Colorado. Mount Quandary got its name from miners who had trouble identifying the ore on its slopes. |
| Side Notes: |
A few days later a few Hoosiers were not as lucky as me. I repeated this climb with my youngest brother (Grant) almost exactly a year later (Dec, 26th 2001). Another beautiful day (photos). |
