Not sure if you have to log in to view it, but if you scroll down a bit, you get the list of LOJers who have finished.
LoJ still has things I didn't even know existed. I wasn't sure how to get the LoJ finishers in an easy format but that's perfect.

Chi Transplant,

Did you ever finish? I know if you haven't you are very close.

Is there a list for 13er finishers including unranked peaks? I know Boggy finished.

Fascinating list - so it looks like the Kirks are the only ones (at least according to LOJ) who have climbed every mountain in Colorado?

There's a list for everything: https://listsofjohn.com/elev?s=CO&e=13

The middle column shows the two finishers of all 632 soft-ranked and ranked 13ers, followed by everyone else in the database in order of number of these peaks completed.

I'm at 83. Just 549 to go!

The third column includes unranked peaks, and it looks like Mike Garratt has one more than boggyb, so your friend still has work to do. He has finished all the ranked and soft-ranked ones, though!

Not quite. You have to look at the headers above each column. Some say "completed" while others say "closest members." But the Kirks and Teresa are the only people who have finished every ranked peak in the state over 10,000 feet.

Thanks! 14ers.com only list 767 13ers. Loj seems to have more than 775.

Yeah, 'cause it's kind of a subjective list, right?

Ranked peaks are defined by 300 feet of prominence, and soft-ranked peaks are defined by probable 300 feet of prominence based on interpolation between known contour lines of summits and/or highest saddles between the peak and it's next highest ranked neighbor. Or something like that.

Unranked peaks, on the other hand, are any point above a certain elevation above sea level, so they can have as little as zero feet of prominence, though I believe LoJ has some sort of criteria for listing theirs, such as being a named peak, appearing in a guidebook, or showing as an elevation on a map.

Ah - I see. Bunch of slackers - why don't they get on it and finish already.
