For those that haven't seen it the new memorial thread yet, some of us that worked with Mike will be climbing Quandary Peak on August 24 as a tribute to him and to other climbers that have been lost this year. The forum "Mike Cormier (& other climbers) Memorial" has the details.
EVERYONE is welcome to join us, whether you knew Mike or one of the other climbers or not.

I was lucky to meet Mike in June while climbing Wilson Peak. In only a couple miles Mike told many stories about his travels and family, it was a pleasure hiking with him. I’m sorry to hear about the accident, my thoughts go out to his family.

It was a true delight to be able to spend time talking to him and sharing some of my summit cookies with him as we took in the glory of the sun just shedding it's light over the red mountain. His passion for mountain climbing was very apparent. There are just some people that you meet that stick out in your mind....Mike was one of those....a true lover of the mountains! My sincere condolences to his family....my heart is with you.
Cookiehiker - Here is a shot of you with him!
My heart goes out to Mike and his family. Legacy and memories outlive any body.

Just FYI, this post is from two years ago......not sure why it's resurfacing......just don't want anyone to think it's current.
