New Mt. Sunflower KS

In Colorado, it's a hobby to climb all the 14teeners, one of which is Mt. Evans. People wear T-shirts with their conquests marked off. For the non-mountaineering, I thought it would be fun to make a t-shirt that stated "I Climbed Mt. Evans". Mt. Evans is a 14teener right outside Denver. There is a road (Colo. 5) that goes almost to the top - there is a parking lot about 200 feet below the summit. So, the T-shirt would have a picture of the parking lot with the grueling 200ft climb to the summit marked as a dashed line, from some random car door all the way up the manicured path to the top.

(BTW the view from the top, of Pike's Peak 50 mi south and Long's Peak about the same north, is awesome beyond words. If you're ever going through Denver, take a couple hours for the detour.)

New Aye, but to go up Pikes I always take the cog railway
Your "I climbed Mt Evans" T-short reminds me of one we were going to make for gags at the World Freefall Convention. The hot shirt is "I jumped the Jet" (727) but we were going to make some that said "I jumped the Cessna" (always the last resort up).
