Mystery ice cream man climbs 14,000-foot Colorado mountain to deliver frozen treats to fellow hikers: ‘Legend dairy’

DENVER — Hikers who climbed a Colorado mountain got more than just a sweeping view at the top. A man in an ice cream cone costume unexpectedly was handing out frozen treats.

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. But word of him spread quickly to hikers still making their way up the more than 14,000-foot mountain that’s one of Colorado’s tallest.
