Favorite 13er in checklist
I think it would be interesting if the checklist feature had the ability to designate a "favorite 13er" in the same way that you can designate a favorite 14er. This would serve no practical purpose, but might serve as a conversation starter for people trying to find climbing partners, and I think saying what your favorite 13er is could tell you a lot more about someone's climbing preferences than a favorite 14er.

Re: Favorite 13er in checklist
There are just so many 13ers, I don't know how I could pick a favorite! I might be able to do a top 10. 
Climb the mountain so you can see the world, not so the world can see you.

Exactly! I can’t choose between Ypsilon and Vestal. That’s like having a favorite cat. I love Redcloud and Sunshine equally.Tornadoman wrote: ↑Wed Sep 02, 2020 9:05 pm There are just so many 13ers, I don't know how I could pick a favorite! I might be able to do a top 10.

Re: Favorite 13er in checklist
Oh yeah that'd be a tough choice.
I'd love to see people's top 5-10 lists though, while we're here...
I would have forgotten about Ypsilon if the above post hadn't mentioned it. I remember enjoying Fool's Peak quite a bit, and Adams had great summit views. But I haven't really even made a dent in the 13ers and I'm sure the best ones are all in the San Juans. Next year I'm hoping for a week long Weminuche sweep.

The days I keep my gratitude higher than my expectations, I have really good days.

Meeker, Jagged, Half Peak, Adams, Turret, Pacific, Crystal, Jupiter, Ice, California ... I give up, too many favorites.
"Eventually, all things merge into one, and a river runs through it. The river was cut by the world's great flood and runs over rocks from the basement of time. On some of the rocks are timeless raindrops. Under the rocks are the words, and some of the words are theirs. I am haunted by waters." - Norman Maclean

Nobody climbs 14ers anymore, they’re too crowded.

Re: Favorite 13er in checklist
Dallas is my favorite so far. The Trinity Traverse was also a bunch of fun.

Meeker from the iron gates. That downclimb off Meeker ridge's summit was more intense than anything I've experienced on 14er!
