Mt. Bierstadt in the Snow: Stunning Colorado 14er

[@kari4295]

Oh my! That sunrise looks like fire from a volcano!!

[@LiveHardxLoveHard]

Yes Kari! It was absolutely spectacular, and so fun that the 2 minutes when it was most perfect was when we were shooting the intro. Love how nature can continually surprise us. ❤️

[@Bulldogs117]

That sunrise is insane

[@LiveHardxLoveHard]

It was one of the best we've seen in Colorado -- over too fast, of course, but were so happy we could capture it for you guys! ❤️

[@TrekkingTheRockies]

The most beautiful video of hiking Mount Bierstadt I've ever seen. What a gift for you both, that sunrise. I can't believe how fast winter arrived in Colorado this year, there's been even more snow since you hiked Bierstadt. Colorado was dumped on the first week of November. I was able to hike last year, 2023, until February 2, 2024 before true winter arrived. Thanks for taking me along on your adventure. Can't wait to see where you both go next.

[@LiveHardxLoveHard]

Thanks so much -- really happy to share that Bierstadt sunrise with you! Yes we got to experience that massive storm because we stayed an extra week in CO to see friends who returned at the beginning of November, and when we left we actually had to drive through the tail end of it! But I think you'll be psyched about where we went, because the hiking in Moab has been incredible!! ❤️

[@markgubbins1958]

You don't see sunrises much better than that. Spectacular !!!! Incredible 360 view also.

[@LiveHardxLoveHard]

Thanks Mark! Ya we felt exactly the same in person -- both the sunrise and the summit were just spectacular to the eye! ❤️

[@tyedyegal9]

Amazing sunrise 🌅! We loved Bierdstadt 🏔️

[@LiveHardxLoveHard]

So glad you guys got a chance to do this beauty! We were pretty blown away by the views, and next time we're gonna try the traverse over to Blue Sky (but when it's warmer!). ❤️

[@TalesFromAbroad-SJ]

What an incredible video! The snow-covered Mt. Bierstadt looks absolutely magical, and you captured the beauty of the trail so well. Winter conditions really do add a special charm to this Colorado 14er. Your experience and tips make it feel so accessible and inspiring. Thanks for sharing such a stunning adventure! 🏔❄

[@LiveHardxLoveHard]

Thanks so much, that is very nice of you to say! Totally agree with you about winter conditions -- it was really gorgeous in the snow. ❤️

Dang! That photography of that sunrise rocks. That was amazing. Great hike and glad you got to see some Colorado locals - Big Horn Sheep - on the way down. Keep it up!

[@LiveHardxLoveHard]

Thanks Bruce!!! Ya we've really gotten to see a lot of good CO wildlife on this trip, but I don't think anything will top that giant moose on Conundrum! ❤️

[@DallasandPhyllisLemon-pb2ry]

Phyllis and I watched that sunrise from our back yard and it was spectacular, and you did a great job of capturing that beauty! It was a stunner!!! Now that you've been in Colorado for an extended length of time, you can see why people want to live here. It is a beautiful state. Love this video! 😁

[@LiveHardxLoveHard]

So fun thinking you were watching the same sunrise! Cool that you could see it from your house. We could absolutely see ourselves living here, perhaps one day we will!

[@colbyclay5911]

What a glorious sunrise! Acclimated Adam crushing some elevation and Elated Elise using a cheesy, but appropriate, quote. 10/10 adventure

[@LiveHardxLoveHard]

Thanks Colby! Yes living at elevation has been freaking amazing. I used to watch channels like Mediocre Amateurs and wonder how they could climb such high peaks fast without getting out of breath, and now I realize it's just that they live at altitude full time. Loving it!! --A

[@maryberrie1]

WOW. That sunrise was unreal!!

[@LiveHardxLoveHard]

Yes Mary! It only lasted for a few minutes, but was among the top two or three sunrises we've ever seen on a hike. Nature is just full of amazing surprises. ❤️

[@patrickmaddy4611]

Beautiful sunrise! I've hiked that mountain twice in the past but both times during summer when you have to share the summit with 200 of your closest friends. BTW, those were bighorn sheep at the end. Mountain goats are snow white in color and have smaller, black horns.

[@LiveHardxLoveHard]

That is good info about the Bighorn sheep -- thank you! Lovely creatures. Glad you've gotten to climb this beauty. You have to try it in the cold at some point -- def a lot less crowded! ❤️

[@LiveHardxLoveHard]

Thanks Jeff! We absolutely love sharing beautiful places and things like that sunrise with you guys, and get so excited and happy just thinking about you all enjoying them!! ❤️

[@catherinewatson5519]

Amazing sunrise and beautiful landscapes generally. Given how relatively non-technical the hike looked, it seems surprising that no one else was apparently around (even though it was cold) - the world to yourselves!

[@LiveHardxLoveHard]

It was wonderful, Catherine! As you suspected, this was definitely not one of those climbs where we see no other people the whole day. But fortunately it was spread out enough that we were able to take our time and have a comfortable distance from other hikers. Whenever we do encounter a bottleneck on a hike like this we've learned just to go off trail over to the ridge line, where the hiking is generally harder but the visuals are more spectacular. We'll take that trade any day! ❤️

[@hindsfeetonhighplaces]

That sunrise was AMAZING. Oh wow that's once in a lifetime level gorgeous!

[@LiveHardxLoveHard]

It really was one of the very best sunrises we've ever seen on trail. the only comparable one we've filmed was on our Rabbit Peak sufferfest a few years ago, which had a great sunrise AND a great sunset! ❤️

[@jeffcottingham3691]

just stunning as always! This is one I've thought of doing as it's only a few hours from us. Trying to convince my wife and daughter to tag along might be a different story! I heard a new song here that contains one of my favorite lines of sorts, something like "what will be has already been?" (basically history repeating itself, both from the book of Ecclesiastes and from the remade "Battlestar Galactica"). Looking forward to some new Band camp stuff! Much love to you both!

[@LiveHardxLoveHard]

Jeff you gotta do it! I think your wife and daughter could totally handle it if you guys went in summer when it's warm and comfortable out -- they might not like how cold it is right now. But the views are so nice and the trail is totally class 1, so it would be a great family hike. Yes we're working on some new songs as we speak, so def will have more Band Camp up in 2025! ❤

[@artfantasies]

Wonderful video hike again! The landscape is just stunning, love the vastness of the mountains there, here in Bavaria the mountains are quite "compacted".

[@LiveHardxLoveHard]

Thank you! Vastness is a very good way to describe it. Especially from high up, it's an amazing feeling to look out over the horizon and to the other giant peaks. Hope you will come and visit from Bavaria! ❤️

Fantastic, as always 👌🏿💯🧗‍♀️🧗‍♂️⛰️ And that sunrise ☀🤩

Thanks Christian! Ya that was one of the best sunrises we've ever seen on trail, right up there with the Rabbit Peak one a few years ago! ❤️

Yowza! One of your most spectacular and beautiful videos. From sunrise (!!!) to summit the views were amazing. Thank you so much for capturing it so well and bringing us along once again ❤️

[@LiveHardxLoveHard]

Thanks Tom! It really was a blessing to get that sunrise, and then the hike just kept on delivering views the whole way. Highly recommend this one! ❤️

[@prowrestlingisart6742]

wow, that video opening took my breath away. I can't recall a more stunning sunrise

[@LiveHardxLoveHard]

It really was epic -- in person it was even more crazy than on camera! The only one we've ever filmed that's in that league was in our Rabbit Peak video a few years ago. It wasn't quite as deep colored, but it was huge and lasted a bit longer -- and that sufferfest had a crazy sunset too! ❤️

[@LiveHardxLoveHard]

Haha I've definitely been getting a bit cocky with the altitude, Liam 🙈 This is the first time Elise hasn't regularly kicked my butt at above 12,000, and I've been enjoying a bit of trash talk about it for sure. Hopefully it won't ruin my altitude Karma! --A

Oh wow, how is the recovery going? Hope you are healing up quickly so you can get back out there asap! Were hoping to spend some winter months in the Sierra this year snowshoeing and skiing!

[@Summitspeedfly]

Love your excitement at that stunning sunrise. I'm surprised you didn't see any moose around those wetlands at the beginning of the trail, usually some there this time of year. Bierstadt = big rewards for relatively little effort.

[@LiveHardxLoveHard]

It’s prob good we didn’t see any moose because our stoke level may have killed us 😂 such a cool climb and you’re right, pretty easy if you’re altitude acclimated!

[@ericnfriedman]

Great job y'all! How is it that you seem to get these mountains all to yourselves! Little side note: I know you get people telling you all the time what you could do differently, but I wonder about bringing some more emergency layers like a small sleeping back and maybe a small bivy. All it takes is a little slip up and a badly twisted ankle and you could be waiting hours and hours for an evac. You are no doubt super experienced and capable, but accidents happen and Colorado is unforgiving. Keep being awesome!

[@LiveHardxLoveHard]

Thanks Eric! Going at off-peak times is really a huge help in terms of it not being crowded. There were still some people on the trail, of course, but we had a lot of space for the most part, and when it got a little more crowded toward the summit we just headed off trail and ascended the ridge line which was more awesome anyway! As for extra layers, we always bring emergency bivvies -- they're not super warm, but would at least keep us totally try and out of the wind chill in any sort of emergency. ❤️

[@LiveHardxLoveHard]

Yes! We were originally going to do the Sawtooth traverse to Blue Sky on this video, but decided against it after the snow because things were looking really slippery. But no doubt we're going to do it next time we're here in summer -- it looks awesome!! ❤️

There are some nice hikes and very interesting technical climbs in the Sangre de Cristo Range in Southern Colorado for you to consider doing next summer.

Sunrises are often quite dull compared to sunsets, but this one is amazing.

[@LiveHardxLoveHard]

That’s interesting about sunrises vs sunsets. We’ve seen a lot of both during our adventures, and one thing we’ve noticed about sunrises is that they tend to be more red, like this one. So if you like red skies, sunrises can be pretty incredible!

[@Metal0sopher]

A pretty hike with snowy landscapes, with a bright red sunrise that could have been painted by a painter I appreciate for his many explanatory videos, Bob ROSS who died in 1995.

This time ADAM, ELISE did not spare you, but always with kindness. Kisses to you both. DAN ELISE et ADAM un bonjour de France. Jolie randonnée aux paysages enneigés, avec un lever de soleil rouge et éclatant qu’aurait pu peindre un peintre que j’apprécie par ses multiples vidéos explicatives, Bob ROSS décédé en 1995.
