14er finisher - second time around
Yahoo! I am finally done with the 14ers for my second time around. It took me several tries to get the last 3 in Chicago Basin done! I have Shasta on my personal check list and then I want to quit the checklists and hike for the sake of hiking, and bike, and ski, and ..... It took me 8 summers to do the 14ers the first time, and 11 summers to do them the second time. I was not planning on doing them twice, it just sort of happened. And each time I had to repeat easy ones to get in shape for the hard ones. And now I am off to go camping this weekend and have quality time with my husband and dog. Can't get enough outdoors!

Two rounds is really something. I'm happy with two on any of them!

Congratulations! I understand the not planning it part, but these things can be addictive! And then there's friends who are on their first lap, etc!
