Hi, Target Tony. I remember talking to you at the top of Twin Sisters for a half hour or so and discussing your plans. I was the guy from Nebraska planning on doing Long's the next day- which I did. Congrats on getting your hunt in AND getting Elbert. I trust you got out of the Estes/Longmont area before the floods?

I was staying in Longmont until shortly after Labor Day and it seems that just a few days after that, things went bad. Hopefully this beautiful area is on the way to recovery as I look forward to coming back with my brother so he can get the summit of Long's and Alice. Take care!
