Thank you, folks, I really appreciate the kind words!

@Exiled Michigander, Stiffler_from_Denver, and terribletigzy it was great meeting and hanging out with you all. I really appreciated your support.

@supranihilest - It was great meeting with you and hanging out exchanging tales. It really helped me to keep up my stoke for the big day. Congratulations to you also for finishing up the Cents - I’m honored to share the date with you. Looking forward to joining you on Fairchild in the near future.

@Mtnman200 - I appreciate seeing you out there still tearing it up, but I’m gonna go with @seannunn in thinking I’m not an old man - as long as I keep moving!

As for my favorite Centennial, I’m going to say Arrow was a top fav as well as Thunder Pyramid. Both great peaks in stunning locations. Pre-LiDar, I might’ve said Tea Kettle.

Happy trails and thanks again to all the 14er family!
