Grays and Torreys Peaks via Kelso Ridge, with maps & route description

My climb of Torreys and Grays Peaks by way of the class 3 Kelso Ridge on August 10, 2020, along with maps & route description. These are two of the most well-known and popular 14ers in Colorado. Grays is the highest peak in both the Front Range and the highest point on the Continental Divide. In this video I briefly discuss some of their history, and provide plenty of footage for each stage of the route on these picturesque peaks. Enjoy!
