SKT
What is the slowest know time for completing all the 14-ers?
Me, I've been working on them since '98, and I still ain't finished yet...
My 14-er skiing attempt has been going on for about that long too.
I got this thing if I just try hard enough...

Re: SKT
I think this might be my favorite post of all time. I am only interested in hearing about slowest known times from this point forward. (I have been known to count steps up high peaks before relieving myself to breath, it is likely I hold a few SKT's)

Re: SKT
I don't know who has the SKT for the 14ers, but I'm fairly sure I have the record for SKT for the tricentennials: Fairchild Mtn. (13,502') on July 1, 1970 to V 10 (13,475') on August 22, 2019, which is over 49 years.

Re: SKT
There should be an award for "Person Who Tried All the 14ers and Never Summitted Any of Them". Or maybe the "Drove to the TH and Never Got Out of the Car" award.

This gentleman who posted on the FB may have the SKT.

There was a guy who climbed them all while solving the Rubik's Cube.
Some day our kids will study Clash lyrics in school.

Re: SKT
I started in 2001
At least I'm doing better than I am with the Utah 13ers. I started those in 1987 and still have two left.
2001 for me and I still have six left.JulianSmith wrote: ↑Tue Sep 28, 2021 12:53 pmMe, I've been working on them since '98, and I still ain't finished yet...

I'm old, slow and fat. Unfortunately, those are my good qualities.

Re: SKT
I look forward to your one and only trip report when you finally summit San Luis in 2050 demolishing Mike Johnson's 49 year 3 month SKT.

Re: SKT
1989 for me. I lost interest in the early 90's, the Sawatch rock piles did it. No plans to finish.
