Re: ElDChopper is a Finisher
Cool stuff. Interestingly, my first 14er summit was also Windom and Culebra was my 58th, AND it took right at 17 years to climb them as an out-of-stater as well. Congratulations!

Re: ElDChopper is a Finisher
Chopper - Hope you can attend our next KC 14ers get-together. No date yet figured out yet, but I'm buying your first drink. Congrats! It's great to see another of our KC climbers finish!
Climb on!

Mega-contrats! Welcome to the KC finishers club, we're energetic even if geriatric.

Congrats, EIDChopper! Seeing fellow flatlanders persevere and become a 14er finisher always gives me motivation to keep chipping away at my list.

Congratulations on your finisher. It would take a lot of determination driving in from KC all these years.

Re: ElDChopper is a Finisher
From another fellow KCer, congratulations Chopper. I am curious as the origin of your screen name. In any case, I look forward to perhaps meeting you someday soon at a KC event. Gary, make it happen, OK?
