Incredible! Makes finishing the 14ers look lame in comparison. :D

WELL DONE! Way to stick to that MONSTER list until completion. I probably would've given up halfway through. Must be an incredible feeling ... because it is one hell of an accomplishment.
CONGRATULATIONS!

Re: Sgladbach completes the 13ers!!!
The more 13ers I climb, the more impressive finishing this list is! Heartfelt kudos from a fellow 13er list junkie, Steve! I've seen your name on many obscure 13er registers. I think you said you were working on the named unranked 13ers as well. How much do you have left on that list?

I second all that. Until I realized he's climbed all the CO 13ers, I'd feel even more satisfied with my taste in peaks if I saw his name in the register.Kevin Baker wrote:The more 13ers I climb, the more impressive finishing this list is!

To wit, from Saturday... Congrats on something huge!

Re: Sgladbach completes the 13ers!!!
Most sincere and heartfelt congratulations!!
This is the type of accomplishment, requiring an unwavering and moreover undying, long term commitment, that seems to show the rest of us a sense of humility.
I wish you a lifetime of mountain adventures.
