Emrys, Bryce, Taylor, Steven, and Teddy Rose hike Summit Peak!

At 13,300 feet above sea level, Summit Peak is the highest peak in the South San Juans. We backpacked into this area a couple weeks ago, but were unsuccessful in our attempt to summit Summit. Inspired by the challenge of not "peaking" we were reminded of the passage at the beginning of Romans 5.
----------
"Not only that, but we rejoice in our sufferings, knowing that suffering produces endurance, and endurance produces character, and character produces hope, and hope does not put us to shame, because God's love has been poured into our hearts through the Holy Spirit who has been given to us."
Romans 5:1-5
----------
Even though we may endure suffering, whether backpacking or in everyday life, we know that we serve a God that uses that suffering to produce endurance, character, and ultimately hope. We hope in His glory and love, knowing that He will bring us to an even more majestic mountaintop one day.
