SnowAlien joins the Frozen 14er Club!!

Post by SarahT »

Two days ago, on January 24, my good friend Natalie Moran (aka SnowAlien) became the newest member of the Frozen Fourteener Club upon a successful winter ascent (and descent!) of Capitol Peak! Few have the grit, patience, and perseverance to endure the suffering and monumental effort required to join. Congratulations Natalie, you earned it and we are proud to have you!!

Awesome Natalie!
Now you only need a few more, along with Capitol (again) to finish the ski list too, right?!

Kudos to you Sarah if you repeated Cap with her to be with another winter finisher!

Thank you Sarah! I better make it official then. Thanks you for inspiration, and I guess our training hike last weekend was enough, huh?
No, d-baker, SarahT was watching my tracker and likely wondering what the heck was taking us so long! Pics will be forthcoming. :)
