Winter 13er on Viewing Profile
Hi Bill
Would you consider adding to the Viewing Profile the number of Winter 13ers done, similar to how the number of Winter 14ers is listed?
Thank you.

Re: Winter 13er on Viewing Profile
That is most impressive.
I almost got into ski mountaineering but decided it was too risky at my age.
I hope you realize my earlier statement was meant to be humorous and not meant to be disrespectful.

I know I’m sure there are people who wish I’d act my age. Haha

Re: Winter 13er on Viewing Profile
Because of my age I can’t remember how many 13er snowflakes I have. This will help!
The summit is a source of power. The long view gives one knowledge and time to prepare. The summit, by virtue of the dizzying exposure, leaves one vulnerable. A bit of confidence and a dash of humility is all we get for our work. Yet to share these moments with friends is to be human. C. Anker
