"Did you really hike in Colorado if you don't hit a 14'er?"

This artifact belongs to Jessica "Dixie" Mills, specifically her Instagram account @homemadewanderlust where she documents her backpacking trips, and shows the author sitting on top of a mountain in Colorado. This photo in particular comes from a series of posts that capture her time on the Continental Divide Trail. Here, she posts a picture of herself on top of Grays Peak holding a sign that has the elevation. There is also a caption for the photo from Mills celebrating the peak ascent as well as a congratulatory comment from a follower.

<bold> homemadewanderlust <bold> Did you really hike
in Colorado if you don't hit a 14'er? Well,
yes, but I think it was worth it anyway.
Grays Peak in the bag–aka the highest
point on the CDT!
