That was us! Wish I had started as young as you! Keep on rocking!

Congratulations on a great achievement!!! Based on the knowledge displayed in your posts, I assumed that you had finished the centennials long ago. Like you say though you are at least as much of a technical climber as a peak bagger.

Yeah, I really wasn’t focused on the list for awhile, and then I wanted to finish with Amy, since it was really her goal. Jagged was the perfect mountain for us to finish together on.

Thanks for the kind words, everyone!
