Congratulations! Well earned for someone whose strength in the mountains makes it appear almost effortless. I really appreciated having you as a hiking partner for the winter summits we have shared. Rock on.

Super strong climber and a hell of a nice guy. It was my pleasure to share some winter summits with you. Congrats on finishing the winter list.

Re: Winter Finisher: Classic Lounging!!
Way to go, Greg! Greg is one of the strongest partners I have hiked with. I had the privilege of joining him on 7 winter 14er summits I believe, and a lot of those were tough ones. I will never forget our Crestones adventure!

Re: Winter Finisher: Classic Lounging!!
It's been confirmed in person he did lounge on Huron on Friday. 
Greg, I cannot say enough about you as a partner. Our day on Cables route on Longs in winter is probably still my favorite (although Mt Wilson and C/C are not far behind). I will always look up to you and your standards. Stay awesome.

Re: Winter Finisher: Classic Lounging!!
Considering how fast Greg is, I thought maybe this was the 10th time he finished.
Congratulations Greg!
Edit: I missed the point...finishing in winter was in my head....Congratulations on finishing them all in winter Greg!
