Summer Hiking Partners

Post by colingoodman »

Hello everyone!

I am looking for others willing to meet up this summer on any 14ers I have left. Most of mine are in the San Juans, and it would be particularly great to find one or more people to do the Chicago Basin peaks with. My todo list also includes the Crestones, Snowmass, Antero, the Lake City peaks, and others.

I am normally based in Denver but will be living in the Salida area for the next couple of months.

I’m comfortable with exposed scrambling up to low 5th and I sport climb. I’d especially love to link up with other rock climbers and/or people close to my age, but any good company is welcome.

Sup bro,

Looking to do all flatirons night ascend scramble the 10th Jun or 9th August. I think I already have your number if your interested. The dates are the full moons, want to do August more because the 3rd will be open then and will allow me to do all them in a day. Also looking to do Capital or Crestone in July. Gives more time for snow to melt. I have a pretty weird schedule but have a lot of flexibility. Regardless, taking some PTO on and around August to do some night ascends of some of these if weather permits. I also prefer night ascends as I am on nights, but more than willing to do days, I just hate the sun, so hopefully on an overclouded day without rain would be nice. Or super early start.

Hey! Would you be interested in doing Snowmass next week? Thinking of doing the S Ridge route taking and West slope down. S Ridge looks pretty sweet.

Hey man,

Also looking to do the Crestones this summer. Maybe July-August timeframe. I typically hike Friday-Sunday since I have those days off. I was hoping to do the traverse between the two peaks, not sure if you're up for something that spicy. Let me know if you have any interest!
