*The marten creek unplanned bivvy was iconic. How none of us had headlamps that trip still stumps me to this day.

*I remember your Subaru coming to a stop and balanced ever so delicately on some boulders in the ditch as I woke from my power nap in the passenger seat. How it failed to roll over still amazes me :wft:

Let's create more memories with headlamps and vehicles with functional parking breaks.

Yes I remember that! You were hiking with someone correct? Good weather that day
Correct. That was longtime climbing pal Tim.

I'm always super stoked when people are able to finish this list! I'm also assuming I owe you a thank you - as a friend & I had planned out the west side approach to this peak a week earlier & were very happy to see Natalie's start of your finisher thread on the eve of our hike. Congrats & thanks again!

Congrats on finishing the 13ers.

And kudos on possessing the wisdom to be thankful at the end of the journey.
