Mystery man hiked 60 pounds of ice cream to giveaway on top of a 14,000 foot Colorado mountain

Sep 8, 2025, 4:58 PM

Normally when you hike a 14,000 foot mountain in Colorado, the reward at the end is the view, but some hikers on a trail near Aspen the other day got a little something extra. Some guy had hiked up with a 60-pound pack of ice cream sandwiches, and was there handing them out to people.

No one seemed to know the man who carried ice cream sandwiches and bars and dry ice in a 60-pound pack up Huron Peak over the Labor Day weekend. He was wearing an ice cream costume, with sunglasses and a fake mustache… and was drinking a beer. One of the hikers called him “legend dairy.”

Many said the man later zoomed past them on the way down the mountain, this time without his costume, making them think he had climbed it many times.

The mystery man has still yet to be identified, but I will say the world could use more cool, good folks like this guy!
